    Question Seeking Recommendations: Child Seat Anchors Front Bench

    Hi all I’m wanting to get a couple of child seat anchor points fitted for the front bench seat.

    Can anyone recommend someone that is local to the Gold Coast that can help?

    Also is it possible to have the anchors fitted to the bench seat itself rather than the van floor?

    Only on the seats if they are rated to have them. Most arent Have to see an engineer about it

    If you dont have any seats behind the front row you maybe able to fit a C.R.A.B. device , child restraint anchor bar , Its designed to fit top tether points behind certain seats as I used to fit them 22 years ago . The idea of them is it does not place any strain on the top of the backrest as its inline with the top of the seat backrest and bolts to the body either side behind the front seat . DO NOT fit an anchor point to the floor below the seat as in a crash the strain of the belt will cause the backrest to break its mounting which would then propel the child seat etc forward causing injury . I would suggest you contact Van Quip in Mansfield Brisbane for more info . I sold my business doing extra seating chlid restraints etc 22 years ago so I cant help.

    Thanks Sunny that’s a huge help!
    I most definitely won’t be cutting corners here.
    I’ll give Van Quip a call.
