Adding seats isn’t just about bolting them to the floor. Here’s what you need to know:

• Structural Reinforcement: Seats must be mounted to reinforced points or a subframe.
• Safety Features: 3-point seatbelts, headrests, and ISOFIX points for child seats.
• Optional Comfort Upgrades: Side windows, lighting, and heating for the rear cabin.
• Legal Compliance: Notify the DVLA to update your V5C logbook and inform your insurer
