Hi DeborahTurner, found it! Not sure if it's discontinued, I keep finding all this good Quechua stuff, only to find out they stopped doing it the year before

Here's the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGS5vd-VT6s

Gwynapnudd, that’s perfect!
How did I miss that in Decathlon?
I now want that available to apply to my single SIM!
Needs to be car-space lite.

I've been tempted... but haven't succumbed as yet!

I believe a fair few of the various SIM manufacturer's do their own version of a
SIM CHAIR KIT...

You could improvise something. I was thinking 2 pieces of hard plastic slightly wider than the sim. Attach the plates top and middle to the sim, possibly with elastic. Then have webbing straps coming from the top corner and bottom corner, if you prop the sim up and attach theses straps together with clips, you could just unclip them when you want to lie flat.
Like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Highlander-Portable-Adjustable-Festivals-Stadiums/........ but without the two pieces joined together, if that makes any sense. That way, if you wanted more of a lounger, you could just position one piece further down the sim

Well, how exciting! I had never heard of a Sim Chair Kit, but based on that a bit of googling reveals that Thermarest and Vango both do webbing strap-based kits for turning a SIM into a chair, that, I think could be used to leave the bottom part of the mat lying flat and create a back rest.

The Ex-ped version looks good if it will accommodate my Outwell 7.5Cm SIM.
