We are curious if anyone has added belts to the dining seats. We are hauling 3 kiddos, so y’all can imagine the conversations about who sits where.
Thank you

Thank you
Rain,
We are glad you found us.
Strange you should ask. We are at a bit of a loss here, because we have no idea what your coach is and what your plan might be. About 13K TZEs shipped over 6 production years and they are not nearly all the same. Even without owner mods, there is still a lot of variation to be accommodated.
I did that and I put belts at every place that I expected a passenger might like to ride. As I once took a break from dynoland and went to the crash department of a Detroit OE, I learned very fast that, as much as I liked seatbelts, they had more value than I knew. Again, we are a a severe disadvantage here because not knowing what your coach is, we can make no meaningful suggestions. We just might have some. In my coach, I found some prepared locations that were unused and added a few that required some additional material.
To this end, a sigfile is a great help. I see that you are working the forum from the e-mail side. I don't know how you can do a sigfile, but I am sure someone here does and I hope he comes along soon. Look at the others for some guidance, but it should have a real name (we like to know who we are helping), a short about the coach (year, model and major mods) and a geographic reference because one of your new old friends might be nearby.
Where we should have started back in late October:
Welcome to the group, family, cult, asylum......
You have become a part of an amazingly supportive and helping community. Do not be put off be the forwardness you will get here, as far as most of us are concerned, you are an old friend that just turned up. This board has had over 2K people signed on and many are long term owners with some vast experience. We also do a lot of self check here, so the answers you get are pretty much on the mark. If you think of the coach as just a new big toy, you are wrong. It attaches you to this community and that is the most valuable part of owning a TZE. As this community is so much like that of the watermen of my world, I have paraphrased a greeting used there. So,
May the Good Lord bless this coach and all those that set forth within her.
Welcome Rainbow Rider (until we know better)

There are hard points in the body frame for seat belts.
They are referenced in the parts book, and you can spot them from under the coach.
Now, we need a belt supplier.

When I did install them, got some that were salvage from a GM car and the rest were from:
The same place [url]seatbeltsplus[/url]
