Hello all
I am a new memebr to the forum having just purchased a 1989 T25. I have a few questions, and would like to call on your knowledge please.
Q1, We need to fit a childs seat in the rear of the vehicle using a conventional 3 point inertia seat belt system (as in cars). However, we only have lap belts in the back. Has anyone fitted inertia belts in the back ? do they need to be fitted by a specailist ? .. any thoughts. I want to get this right as it's an important safety necessity etc.
Q2, Where is the best place to get a side awning ? any advice on awning design and pracacility would be most welcomed please.
Looking forwards to lot of fun with our new toy
many thanks

welcome ,fitting 3 point belts is easy you already have the bottom bolts were your lap belts are you just need to drill a hole at the top at back, you can get to this outside just take the air grill out and tighten your bolt,if you have work tops /cuboards the other side is a bit more tricky but still can be done ,i did my onside one in around an hour ,good luck do it yourself and save money.
