Title: Fitting a child seat in S2 Coupe. Post by: julian on 08 May, 2012, 11:07:12 AM Hello Gents
I’m planning to take our two year to his first car show next weekend, so need to find a safe way of securing a child seat in the back of the car (71 S2 1.3S Coupe). I’ve got a set of universal inertia belts I acquired some time ago but never fitted, and I recall the Fulvia has a set of rear anchor points, but it’s a long time since I’ve had the rear seat out. Any help / advice before I start, anyone done similar? Many Thanks Julian Title: Re: Fitting a child seat in S2 Coupe.

I did this to my coupe but never used them but I used static belts...

Thanks for the replies, it’s good to know the anchor points are all there. I’m going to pull the car out on Saturday and take a look. I don’t think mounting the belts will be too much trouble, the main issue is that I don’t want to hack bits out of the interior, as it was fully re-trimmed a few years ago and is really straight. I’ve a few ideas up my sleeve and if the worst comes to the worst I’ll strap the child seat in the front and stuff his mum in the back ;) Thanks again. Title: Re: Fitting a child seat in S2 Coupe.
