If seatbelts are retro fitted they should then be tested, as the base vehicle is, for type approval.

I have never heard of a company that would do this. One or two engineers have done a DIY job but that is another can of worms.

It would be a good idea for them to contact Elddis and ask them whether there are any properly tested belt mount points on their model of van, as rear seat belts may have been an option when the van was made.

If not, I doubt that it will be anything other than prohibitively expensive to try and fit rear belts.
