windows arent a problem at all, you dont need those. You will need seatbelts though.
They are really simple to fit. they have 2 bolts holding the seat to the wheel arch (with a spreader plate on the underside) and clips on the back of the backrest that hold it tight against the side of the tub.
The seat belts (lap belts) again just bolt through the wheel arch with plates underneath to spread the load out more.
The kits can be fitted in no time
sorry? Thats now it was instructed when we fitted them to the series 3, and how i've removed them from defenders? just going from experience that's all.
ahh I didnt know that! We were unsure in the series due to its age, and haven't fitted any yet as no one ever travels in the back. However on the defenders I have worked on they did have retractable lap belts, which to be honest Id rather have fitted just to be on the safe side of things anyway.
Looks like I need to do some more research and learning there then.
You've been lied to. There is no legal requirement for Lapbelts on side facing bench seating or any other sidefacing seating. In fact it's illegal to restrain a child in a lapbelt on a side facing seat.
well there we go then, answered a question on here at least.
Lap straps will cause severe abdominal and pelvic injuries in the event of a crash. Dont fit them or use them if they are there.You've been lied to.
