I did something very similar on my last bus. Comfy co-pilot seat, partial step cover and our Golden Retriever's favorite spot was sitting right between us and looking out the windshield. It was hilarious when I started the bus. Without fail, the dog would immediately take his spot and the cat would hide under the bed.
The one thing that I did that I regretted: I removed the factory air seat and replaced it with a fancy ultraleather RV seat. The new seat was very comfy for an hour or two then I needed to stretch and move around. The ugly factory seat was
MUCH more comfortable for long drives than the new one.
On my new bus I am going to look at having the factory air seat reupholstered to match whatever I pick for the co-pilot.
If you are intent on a bench seat keep in mind that driver comfort can be a big deal if you find yourself driving 8+ hour days or making multi day driving trips.
Have fun & make it your own.
