Original folding seats were long gone when I bought my van and wanted a big bed for a camper. This uses a standard full-size mattress (cut in half, obviously) which is about as big as will fit inside the A108 along with fridge, stove, and sink. Will go in the left-rear corner and almost touch the right hand interior side of the van when in bed position. If anyone wants them, I can provide dimensions. Here's some pics of the build:
