Is there a lever on the backside of the seat framework that moves sideways?
If there is: that's the one! ]

There is a way to get the drivers seat to turn more than 90. Search the forums there are a few posts about how to perform the maneuver.

I haven't done it myself so I can't tell you how (I think in one version of it involved removing one of the armrests).

Removing the let armrest is one way. I found on my ACE, which has the same issue, is that if I tilt the back just a little bit that armrest clears the bottom of the steering wheel with the wheel tilted all the way up.

Here's the link you need to follow
Remember, you'll need to extend the slide in order to perform this feat.

And once I get it rotated, my 29 inch legs can only dangle. I'd like a barber's chair foot rest.

Yes, you are correct

We purchased the $20 foldable ottoman at CW to use when the seat is rotated or for the OEM couch.
While driving we store between the 24.1 beds in the rear.
They list it as “charcoal” but it’s actually dark brown.

Electric seat is different

If you have the electric driver seat it is different to turn it around, but it will do it! I just did a trial and error and eventually get it turned around. The trick is to get the left-hand armrest to clear under the steering wheel. The steering wheel needs to be all the way up. You start off with the seat bottom tilted forward but they say it’s self back. Then turn it partway and move the seat forward I believe. You need to follow the back of the seat forward to the armrest will clear under the steering wheel. The next time I do it I’m going to take a video of it so I can remember!
