Anyone know of where you can get an extension (known as CRAB Bar) to safely attached child seats when the existing points are obscured by something in the cargo area. Preferably in Melbourne but I'm happy to get them from interstate if necessary.

Jim,

I had to get a crab bar when I had my Troopy. I used a company called Littles Child Restraints, they offer a mobile service and I was very happy with them. They can be contacted on 1300 728 363.

Cheers

Jim,

In NSW the RTA have a list of Child Restraint Fitting Stations.

I would think that Vic would have a list as well.

FYI, CRAB is a Child Restraint Anchor Bar. If you say a CRAB Bar, you are saying Child Restraint Anchor Bar Bar. :-))

The CRAB can only be sold and fitted by a licenced child restraint fitter.

You sure you're not the Brother of that bloke Allan Funt who used to do Candid Camera?

I'm sure he had a brother called Cunny.

Hi Jim,
I know places like K Mart, Target, etc sell extension straps for child seats where the original strap is too short, maybe they have what you're after?
Hope this helps.

Cheers, Brad

Jim,

Cleaning out my shed and just found my Crab bar.....you can have it if you want it. I took it out of the Troopy before I sold it and didn't require it in my new vehicle. Drop me a MM if you want it. I am located in the SE suburbs of Melbourne and go through Dandenong regularly for work.

Cheers
