We use this .. a shipping container lock £20

 

[68c]

The thieves will just fold the backrest down and sit on that as they drive the van a short distance away then use a battery angle grinder to remove the lock. Or undo the four retaining bolts and swop the front seats over.

Just look at the mechanism beneath the seat. There are plenty of cut-outs/ holes through which a padlock can be threaded (as in my case) that can stop the seat being swivelled forwards. No need for drilling.

If going for that one check your seat base it won't fit an Aguti slot is too narrow.

Nowhere to drill on the ISRI seats we have fitted!
Used a lock that normally fits round steer wheel to brake pedal, used it to lock seat as far forward as travel will go. No room to sit in rear facing
