This sound like the jumpseat in a Vanagon Camper. That
particular model may or may not be a Wolfsburg
Edition, it depends on whether they have the badges
installed on the front fenders, I've seen them both
ways, with and without Wolfsburg Edition badges.

I saw one that was identical to Goldibox on the
outside except it didn't have Wolfsburg Edition
badges. Same year, model and color. It had power
mirrors, door locks, windows and steering and an
automatic transmission. My Wolfsburg Edition Camper
has none of these options. The owner had gotten the
van from his father who had bought it new. He said
that it never had the Wolfsburg Edition badges on it.

I've used child seats in the removeable jumpseats in
my '91 Carat as well as in the rear seat and never had
any problem or concerns with mounting them either in
the rear facing or forward facing positions.
