You might want to look into a "Y" harness like this: http://www.ezonpro.com/products/familyVehicle/86yHarness.shtml http://www.ezonpro.com/instructions/EZONinstructions_familyVehicle_86y.pdf for your Multivan. You should be able to mount them on the front edge of the engine deck.

Good luck,

Tim

The stock type reels that locate inside the body(per Bentley 68.7) and run through a loop on their way to passenger; or 2). the enclosed reel that bolts directly to the wall (where the "loop" would attach) behind the passenger's head. The factory method would be cheaper but I'd have to cut a slot on the pass side for the belt feed. Then I'd have to route the driver side rigging through the multivan cabinet. I can imagine the belts then never getting snug, always hanging loose and being less useful/safe. The retro-fit enclosed reels available at Go Westy cost about $210 and they will protrude into the cabin. I don't think this would be too much of a problem. Or would it? This is for kids. Any comments, advise or suggestions appreciated. Thanks, Chris C 90MV
