ISOFIX on Westy with R&R Bed?

Post by Mark S »

Hi there, does anyone know if one can buy an ISOFIX bracket to fit behind the rock'n'roll bed in a Westy (without affecting the operation of the seat/bed), which bolts to existing holes (seatbelt mounts etc) and does NOT require extra drilling?

I need to mount one child seat. Presently I am using a seatbelt-secured model and the only place this can go is the front passenger seat, which is not ideal particularly in an LHD. The rear seats have only got lap-belts and I cannot be bothered to fit 3-point belts in the rear. A simple ISOFIX bracket, however, with a different chair would be a neat solution with the added benefit of being able to use it in our other cars.

Many thanks.

Child seats

No I clipped the Isofix bracket to the seat and slipped it between the base and backrest.
Remove the seat from Isofix and ensure you can still use the bed.
Then drill and bolt up. Just watch you don't drill anything you're not supposed to in the void above the gear box, on a 2wd there's not much apart from insulation.
