I installed a child seat in my Tiger II back in 1970. At that time
the seats were built to face forward with a seat belt for the kid. I installed
it by drilling a couple of hole in the upper lip of the sheet metal in front
of the
rag top fold down area. I used some sort of eye bolts from the frame of the
child seat to the two holes. Like A dummy I had also drilled through the
padding
and the damage still exists. The child seat bottom forward edge fit up
against the back
edge of both front seats. Once in a while my daughter's feet would hit me in
the elbow,
but most of the time she would fall sound asleep for the duration of the trip.
