Hello,

also with regards to the the type of seat you have, mine had a back anchor and i ran it
over the back seat and this fixed the rocking foward of the seat. I think one of the main factors
throwing kid foward and rocking side to side.

take care,
Joe

Subject: Child safety seats in the back

Hi all,
I have an 87 Syncro and I need to mount three child seats across in the
back seat. Is there a mounting or retrofit kit available for this model?
I also own an Audi and it was free to have the dealer install a kit into
the back. My local VW dealer is being less than helpful on the
availability of such a kit. I understand that 1987 was before the
federal mandate that all autos have the L.A.T.C.H. mounting points
installed. Is this something that anyone else has run up against? I
don't have a center seat and like the extra room that I have. Has anyone
ever rigged a latch system from another car?
Thanks,
Oliver
