Hi I want to install two rear front facing seats and proper seatbelts in the load area of my 90...any one done this or can direct me to threads, kits or companies that can do this...I got three kids so it's a priority !!!
Was thinking of somehow putting in two sports bucket style seats???
Cheers for any help;-)rob
 
just used the 4 holes already in the base bolt through tub with a plate underneath for strength...



easy to do and just cost me £20 for the pare from Ebay..:D
 
Think it was 3mm thick just a bit of scrap lying. About its just put under the tub big washers will do the same thing..
 
I picked up an Exmoor Trim one from Ebay. They don't do this model anymore, but it's nice piece of kit. Fixes to the wheelarch box and then has a further support going to the floor.
It also folds up out of the way

Thanks for the great tip. :cool:

Will hopefully be doing something similar soon.

I like the integrated seat belt mount and locking mech.
Which type of bus did you get the ones you have fitted from? (Transit? Vauxhaul?)

Do you need to secure to chassis somehow due to the seat belt being part of the chairs, rather than just bolting to the footwell?

Cheers.

just bolt straight to bottom of tub i never had any problem with mine at m.o.t time..
 
That's a great idea with the mini bus seats I had been worrying about fitting seat belts but that does away with the issue.

Thanks
 
I went the way of the mini bus seats too but a different type:


They don't fold away but I find it better to unbolt them and remove them completely when I don't want them in there, seat belts are part of the seat too. They're out of an LDV van.

It does limit your insurance options though as some won't cover a vehicle with modified seating
 
Just picking up on this - great idea but is there enough leg room with the seats partially over the wheel arch?
