Palazzo 475 Report post Posted January 20, 2011 Where is the bolt hole in the parcel shelf for an E36, the one that secures the tether strap for a child seat? There looks to be a pull out of some sort on the underside of the parcel shelf, directly in line with the middle of the rear head rest, which would logically be it, is it?

Grant 4 Report post Posted January 20, 2011 You just need to drill through the top level of the parcel tray. We had three different baby seats and they all screwed directly into the holes, areas that I assume you are talking about in both our E36's in NZ (a 97 328i sedan and 96 323i sedan). I would assume that the coupes are the same. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Palazzo 475 Report post Posted January 20, 2011 Thanks to both, Brent, that's the piece I thought looked like the right bit, will try and find the drill. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MD13 492 Report post Posted October 14, 2012 Anything like this in a e30 coupe? Or what have other people done? I don't usually carry the kids around in my car but me and the wife have a scheduling clash so I'll be taking the kids to football... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lidistick 70 Report post Posted October 15, 2012 What sort of seat is this? A capsule? I did plenty of research and didn't want to go down the bolted seats so went with a Maxi-Cosi Priori. 3 point seatbelt attachment and no bolts to drill into the car. Pretty cheap too from Amazon UK. I think I paid £120 delivered to NZ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MD13 492 Report post Posted October 15, 2012 Yeah I had a look round in the boot and I don't see any threaded holes so am going to pick up a seat that just uses the belt. Don't want any new holes... Not for a capsule - my daughter is 3 and a half. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
