Hi guys just thought I'd share the fold flat drivers seat I've just built to enable a full sized double airbed to be used. Went on our first camping trip with it last week! Works really well with minimal fuss. Me my wife and our 2 big dogs slept like babies

👍

Coffee machine, Tv, Toilet ?
Didn't know the front seat backrest could go down that far.

It doesn't, I've added a passenger seat backrest to the drives seat. So that all seats now fold flat 👍

What do you use to make a flat surface to sleep on?

Hi, we just inflate our airbed and adjust the front seats to be level with the folded down rear seats. Works really well 👍

Did you import a right-hand passenger seat from the states, or find a junkyard left-hand passenger seat in the UK, or maybe buy one elsewhere....? That's a pretty interesting setup. I usually just lean my seat back and take a nap when sleeping in my Patriot, though I'm still chronically single, haha.

Ha ha, well it may be the lack of bonking room in your Patriot that's the issue! 😉😂
I just bought another Passenger seat, took it apart and added the parts I wanted to the drivers seat. Worked out a treat, I would like the height adjustable subraframe from a US vehicle to make both front seats height adjustable. But it was proving rather difficult and expensive to obtain.

Haha, not likely, that'll get discovered only after the wedding. I've found that while height adjustment is handy and a fun toy in my Impala, it's not really needed in the Jeep. Just gotta play with different combinations of settings for the seat as a whole and the back adjustment until you find one that's comfy longer-term. And of course set up the mirrors and wheel to work with it. Bit of fun on that with my 100% manually adjusted mirrors, though honestly the only factory option I really wish my Patriot had that it doesn't is heated mirrors. Doesn't seem like there's much point to any of the other stuff most folks want, honestly.
