Baby seats in campervan

[jimlill]

Hi there, just wondering if anyone can help.weve bought a camper an and would love to take our grandchildren out but there are only lap belts in the rear. Is it ok to put a car seat in the front seat for an 18 month old.
Thanks in advance xxx

There's lots of different variables here, but for starters you need to look at whether you can disable the airbags and whether the seat blocks the driver's view (for example I know some of the ERF ones can be used in the front seat but people struggle to see their mirrors). Is it an older style campervan or a newer converted van?
If you're on Facebook there's some great groups that give advice.

As above this is a very common thread on camper groups / forums, some people now sell the brackets to change from Lap belts to three point normal seat belts

Thankyou.the van is 1992 talbot.i will look at maybe belt conversions .and the air bag xxx have a great day !

It wont have an airbag
