Child anchor points in a late notch?
I am wondering if anyone has any experience with installing child restraint anchor points in the rear of a late model notchback?
My little lady would like the smaller of our kids to use the the Type 3 but as they are not quite old enough to be out of restraints either I need to
install anchors, or postpone them going in the car.
Any assistance appreciated.

Ha, very true but I have 2.5 years until the smaller one is able to get to a seat that is not tethered. :-(

Peter from custom vee dub (0733564356) put points in my bug.. the little man totally loves it! He has a fisher price steering wheel that makes the
same noises and he was blown away the fist time we want for a cruise. I got it plated by a mate of mine that owns DB auto tech, but peter can get the
plate sorted for you

Check out your state or territory roads authority. They should have a list of registered child restraint fitters (I know they do for Vic). Have a chat
to one of them, they will tell you what needs to happen. They can also do it for you.

Thanks Paul.
I searched and Production Automotive are on the list and are close by. I reckon they might have a clue about fitting up restraints to an air cooler!
