VDJ79r Bucket seat to Dicky seat possible?

[Wozza244]

I want to swap my bucket seat out to a dicky seat in my 2010 GXL ute so I can fit Myself, the girl and the 4yr old in the ute on trips away.

Will it fit?

Anyone have one laying around?

Mate picked up an older model troopy seat and it fitted straight in so he could take his missus and kid.

Thats tops now I know they fit I will look into sourcing one.

I know, I know. but it is a 2010 and worth some $$$$. seating change means engineers cert doesn't it? i am thinking of going the other way for my 105.

^^ yep will need to be engineered as the car is only complianced as a 2 seat occupancyaking it 3 will require the cert

[Wozza244]

Ah well its all good, engineering is cheaper than setting up a dual cab for touring aswell as having my ute.

Whats the rule with minors in the front seats of utes?

[Wozza244]

No different than a sedan, but they have to be strapped into the laft side of the 3/4 seat in a cruiser. Which means the mrs will be in the centre.

Ive never heard that they have to next to the window. As long as there are anchor points the middle would be ok?
My young bloke goes in the middle of my GQ in a seat and we have never been questioned.

Even with airbags?
