I've done a axle flip too. Don't own a van tho but my mate does,
Mk3 seats do slot in, bit of a pain to get in but no mods needed. Mk4 seats are deffo worth the extra effort tho.

I had to strip mine down, slide in the bases then put the back on in situ.

Got sorted thanks for the replies lads but is there any other things to do apart from cutting and welding the bracket on again?

I fitted Audi TT seats to mines. Real pain in the ass
