    Hi Guys,
    In my photo section there is a pic of what used to be the norm for the Defender, I still have this for sale if anyone is interested.
    As my wife no longer wanted the Defender, it sits in the garage gathering dust.
    $100 delivered anywhere.
    It has 3 anchor points along the bar & bolts in under the window behind the 2nd row seat, remove a bolt & a small plate & slot in large plate (in photo) & bolt together.
    Cheers all.

    Been there, done that, wrote the letter to the minister.

    Got nowhere, and no interest, even when half my family work for the NSW RTA.

    It's pretty common to fit a crab bar to a 110. If you want real trouble, try child restraints on a 130 dual cab or any single cab Land Rover.

    If you search using, 'child restraint' you should come up with a bunch of stuff.

    If you want to keep up with it you can call Karlisle's in Alexandria, Sydney
    Karlisle's

    He's a specialist for odd child restraints and has had experience with Land Rovers. There are also a mob in Hornsby who are the RTA designated administrator of all things child restraint in NSW. Can't recall the name right now, it should be in one of the earlier posts.

    Good luck with it, it'd be great to have this sorted out legally and without the crippling costs. My first quote was for over $2500.

    Cheers
    Simon

    I can recommend this guy in Brisbane

    Steve Blackburn MIAME
    He certifies blue plate modifications, including LK6 child restraint anchorage installations. 0413 005 387

    Steve certified the install of my rear county bench seats into my Defender. He was more than willing to talk me through what i needed to do over the phone and came to my house to certify it. Easy to deal with.

    He's a Volkswagen Synchro nutter so understands our affliction with all things Landrover.

    Steve should know what has to be done and who can do it. When you find out, can you take pics and let us all know
    '95 110 300TDI, F&R ARB Lockers, Twine Shower, Aux Sill Tank, Snorkel, Cargo barrier, 9 seats, swingaway wheel carrier, MadMan EMS2
    '85 110 Isuzu NA 4BE1 3.6l Diesel, 0.996 LT-95, Rear Maxi (SOLD)

    10 years ago we got a child restraint (bar) fitted by Garthons when we bought the Defender.

    er... search?
    plenty of threads on this, the common consensus varies from state to state, but the one inBushie's pic is the more common solution.

    Mate did you ring that streetwise mob? I'm sure ours was less that $300 and it is a registered modification plate, fitted by the people that did the work so I believed it all to be legal?
