Hi, I have a 325i cabby, which I'd love to take my toddler for a spin in, our coupe has a child seat bolt fitting in the parcel shelf, anyone know if there is one somewhere in a cab? Cheers.

I have, but am slightly clueless on what to look for other than a hole of some sort and don't really want to see him flying over my head when we brake! Cheers.

It gets a little cold and windy in the back, depending on the weather and if you're driving with your windows down... :?

Have child seats moved on in recent years?
The one we used for rubber duck89 used the adult 'belt to fix it in,this sort would be suitable.
When the little bugger was a bit taller we used a 'booster' cushion,and the adult 'belt.
Cabbie's have only two belts in the rear,fixings are central at cushion hieght,at shoulder hieght behind the trim and the reel is under the radio speaker area.
