It's not the problem of having the centre anchor point, the problem is the split in the 60/40
seat.
There is a reason why there is no centre child restraint anchor standard on the GU, maybe give Nissan Australia a call and ask them why.
Even though there is no anchor point in the centre now, grab one of your baby seats and place it in the centre then If you sit in the back and hold the strap down near where the anchor point will be fixed you will find the left side of the anchor strap will slide down the split in the
seat.
Maybe not straight away but it eventually works its way across and slides into the split making the restraint very loose.
In the case of an Impact this is a big problem!!
I have read somewhere on another
forum that to screw a thick piece of Aluminium angle to the back of the
seat & across the split can prevent this also.
Do not know about the legalities of this though but Im pretty sure It's quite affective.
Good luck mate, at the end of the day the little tikes rely on us to keep em safe Its worth looking into it a bit more and be comfortable which ever way you go..... they are to valuable!
