No. I didn't have swivel middle row seats, so can't confirm. But can definitely confirm that at 180cm/6' tall, there would have been no point turning the front seat backwards if it was three to four centimeters higher.

Certainly not planning on driving with anyone in that seat while it's facing backwards. But it's good to know that it's a possibility when you get to where you're going. I honestly think it's a better option than a rotating swivel because you don't lose any headroom. I think having tried it out I think if I had put a swivel in that was three centimeters thick it would be too tall for me to sit in comfortably anyway. And the great thing is, it doesn't cost anyone anything to try it 🙂

I just unbolt my ah10 (2003) passenger seat (4x 14mm bolts) and flip it round. Then secure it with some m6 bolts and nuts at the front (of the floor bracket). So the lugs at the front of the seat sliders drop into the threaded rear bolt holes, and then secure the rear slider holes through the hole that the front lugs normally go through (using slightly smaller bolts, because the standard bolts dont fit. I also drilled 2 holes in the rear of the floor bracket, so i can secure the vertical tabs. Takes about 3 minutes to unbolt and rebolt to change direction if i need to carry a passenger, and the seat isn't overly heavy. I'd love a proper bracket but im in Australia and the uk made bracket and postage is a bit exxy. It's a great budget solution (free 😁) and doesn't add any height to the seat in either direction, which is great because im 6 foot tall.
