Default Adding Extra Passenger Seats

Has anyone added extra forward facing passenger seats to their Class B RV?

I need to secure two small children but the two side sofa style beds have no seat belts and their car seats have to be used in forward facing seats.

What model is your van? A lot of B-vans have second row passenger seats with belts. My Interstate has them.

I want to add them to a Sunlight 1 by the sliding door and remove the cabinet. I can't afford a Travato or Aktiv.

I saw where (moreheaddesignlab.com) added a flip down two seat bench right behind the drivers seat. Maybe it would work. I'm thinking about it:

Excellent find! Thank you! I read in the comment section that he used seats from Freedman seating company patt# 3pt-26400-2pfoldcs. Now, I have to see about how to have them installed properly to the van frame.

I just looked at the Sunlight 1 floorplan. With two seats up front it would be perfect for my family. Keep me posted on your progress.
