Fitting seat belts into horseboxes

[Jo C]

I am told this can be done but does anyone know who I would ask to do it please? It is a H reg Leyland 7.5t and I would love to take my daughter with me to some shows but currently it has no seat belts. Anyone else had them fitted?

Most garages should be able to fit them. Or, look in the back of H&H for horsebox fitters and ask them if they'll do it

Lovely thank you.

Forgot to add, if you've got a living area and want to add seat belts to the seats in there, talk to your insurance company

.

Mine said I could add belts to the bench seats in the living area, so long as the seats had a base and a back and there was structure to fit the belt to. Also, had to have a wall between where the humans were sat and where the horses were.

I didn't know you could add seatbelts to the living area. I would probably be happy with them just in the cab but thank you thats really helpful.

Hi.. I had two seat belts fitted in my horsebox, in the living area, just for my two children, Was done very easy by the horse box builder and cost £50 for two new seat belts.

I had mine done by a local garage - It's not too hard as the majority of vehicles have the holes already in the body of the vehicle - just has a rubber plug in it.
