    Hi Babs
    Glad you had a good experience with them too.
    In the rear we have the Michelle Sacs seat covers.
    We are very pleased with them for fit and wear.
    They cost about $550 and I think that is good value.
    Cheers

    Question

    How would this issue be resolved in a new Puma 90?

    Sounds like you better sort out the restraint issue pretty quick, before the Missus sets her sights on a Jeep, or dare I say it.................a dual cab Hilux

    Hi spencer72
    The V bar is part of the bracing for the vertical sides I have made for the back of the defender. Because I put x2, 20lt jerry cans (water or diesel) on the outside of the vertices it wanted something on the inside to brace it.
    It has nothing to do with the anchor points.
    The in-seat options are working very well.
    Cheers

    Really great guys to deal with.
    Their workshop is opposite a LR dealership so they have this conversion down to a fine art.
    x3 anchor points installed with engineers certificate.
    This took them about 6 hours and cost us $900.
    Best deal we could find.
    Thanks folks - I'm about to need a set of these

    I can't see this group on the RMS list of authorised fitters ( Authorised restraint fitting stations < Child restraints < Children < Staying safe < NSW Centre for Road Safety ) - does anyone who has used them know who signed the engineering certificate?

    Or can an engineer certify thier own work for this even if they are not on the RMS list? I'm confused...
