Well if you only want one seat and its for an adult then your best off with one of the high back forward facing fold up seats like this i would say

No not at all, can just be a tip up side facing seat which is alot cheaper just wont be as comfortable for the person who has to sit in it especially for a long journey. It depends on your budget and requirements! 2001 TD5 110 County Station Wagon - sold

I've heard that too. I have lap belts all you can have really. Passed MOT with them so as far as I'm concerned they're fine. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

Well if this is a hardtop and therefore never had seats fitted then cant see why you cant fit the inward facing tip ups but sure someone else will confirm that. As for seatbelt it will have to be a simple lap belt, on my TD5 county there is a strong bar that runs along the back of the seats with the seat belts attached to that. On my old Series 2A the belts are bolted straight to the tub 2001 TD5 110 County Station Wagon - sold

it is supposedly illegal in a 07 onwards landy but i cant see the problem as long as your wearing belts go for the exmoor lap belt Thumbs Up

There you go beat me to it! Sounds like you may have an issue fitting the inward facing then looks like more invesigation is needed. 2001 TD5 110 County Station Wagon - sold

if it was me i would just stick the inward facing in with a lap belt job done. when i had my 200tdi the police didnt even know if we had to have belts in the back or not Shocked series 1 no belts the law is crap different rules but the same danger Rolling Eyes

The post 2007 forward facing seats would also be a challenge to fit in a pre 2007 model because the tub has been strengthened. I'd fit side facing
