I picked up a pair of these yesterday.
They will replace the air ride seats I already have in my motorhome.
They are leather with Heat, Cooling and a "Back Cycler"

My wife's only concern is they may not rotate.
I will have to figure out if the do not or not.

So. What are they out of?

Are they tall enough to bolt them right to the floor without having to use a pedestal?

They are out of a 2018 Volvo Truck.
The pair I have now are bolted directly to the floor, no riser needed.
I assume these will mount the same,
I got them from a truck salvage yard I work with.

They gave me employee pricing, I can probably get more for $50 each.
The others ones don't have the cooling option.
They have not been tested, but I assume everything works.

What is the cooling feature? Cabin air moved by fan through vents in seat? An actual cooler mechanism, or tied into the engine system? I'm curious,
and might be interested without the cooling, but would hate to give up the pivot and use during camping.

From what I can tell, the cooling feature is just a fan mounted under the seat.
The seat material is perforated.
I got the last two with cooling.

I know swivel seats are an option, I just think the pair I got do not have swivel.
I do not know if the ones left have swivel or not.
If they do, I plan on buying 2 more and swapping the bases.

I've had rental cars with ventilated seats and LOVE them. It's one option I'll definitely consider in the future...
