About to get a 2 berth, 2 travel seat Bailey Advance, and want to fit a seat belt acceptor in which to clip our small dog (with harness). She’ll be in her bed, probably on the floor between and behind the cab seats. Has anyone done this? And if so, where is a suitable point at which to attach it? Thanks for any advice, Dave.

    Yes, we've done it successfully for our little dog. I've been informed by "the one" who did it that the fixings will depend on the cab seats. Ours are in a Mercedes Sprinter and needed  an extra hole drilled alongside the present fixing. Care is needed not to compromise the original safety fixings. It has worked very well for us and our dog is on a short dog restraint seat connector that limits movement and as the passenger I can control her when needed. She is very small, (chihuahua) we wouldn't consider it for a larger dog The alternative would be a secured pet carrier or similar. Hope this helps.
