Description
Notes specifically about the Ford Transit swivel installation:
*The non-electronic handbrake on the Ford Transit blocks the driver’s seat from swiveling so an adapter is included. The installation of the handbrake is somewhat complicated. Please review the video to see if this is something you are prepared to do.
*The Ford Transit requires some cutting of the plastic trim on the Driver’s and Passenger seat.
*Some cutting of the seat slider rail may be required to prevent hitting of the B-pillar on the Driver’s and Passenger seat.
1) WHAT IS TUV?
TUV is a European auditing and certification body that ensures vehicle components manufactured for sale in Germany, Switzerland and Austria meet international (ECE Regulations), EC (European Community) directives, and German Motor Traffic Agency (KBA) road traffic legislation. These testing standards are more stringent than the testing standards in the U.S and Canada and allow our customers to have peace of mind when purchasing our products.
2) HOW DOES TUV WORK?
Manufacturer Certification (Certification of the manufacturer’s quality management system) – If you aren’t an actual manufacturer you can’t be a TUV certified manufacturer. If you’re not a real manufacturer and your supplier isn’t a TUV certified manufacturer you cannot have your products TUV approved. This requires that the actual manufacturing facility passes an audit every 3 years by TUV authorities from Europe. The facility must ensure the manufacture of its products meet the standards set by the authorities above in point 1. This is very similar to an ISO 9001 audit and designed to ensure consistent quality of manufacture. TUV wants to ensure that products sent to TUV for testing are not “ringers” and that all products manufactured at the approved facility meet the same standards.
