w124 rear facing boot seats

right ok did a search on this just can find info including phoning the council and the police cant seem to give me an awnser

right what is the law regarding these additional seats

do they need to be fitted with car seats/booster seats

i have found that my car seat will not fit properly to the seats and be held in as they would on the normal rear seats due to the anchour point of the seat belt not being behind the seat like they are in the normal ones they seem to be in line with the seat back

which worries me when it comes to the car seat movement forward and backwards when fitted in as tight as possible

so what is the law on these do they require the additional seats or are they designed to be used with out as they are smaller and lower than normal seats also the seat belt seems to fit a child properly

any ideas on this / has any one been pulled up buy the police because of these seats

The requirements for child seats are dictated by the age & height of the child, not by the car

The rearmost seats in a 7-seater W124 have 3-point belts. If your child seats don't fit well, don't use them
