Looking for suggestions re: rear seat belts and the need to attach the crotch strap lugs when building the fuse. Are you using belt systems that require the crotch strap or is it just going to be in the way. There was a little discussion about this a while back but I'm interested in opinions now that more -10s are flying.

After a bit of thought and info, I’ve left my crotchstrap brackets off. I’ve heard about people either removing them, not installing them, or scraping their knees on them.

So you’re saying you prefer to be “crotchless”? ; )

I'd be interested to hear how many people actually put those knee
breaking lugs. I haven't ever heard much support for them.
Even my 4 and 7 year olds don't have a chance of submarining out
from the seats if they're buckled in properly. Personally,
there's no chance I'd ever put them in.

John's post got me thinking, since of course my QB fuse has them
pre-installed. I wonder if I or someone could design some sort of
removable/collapsible desk tray for food, work, or play for the backseaters
that could use the lug for install and support. Not having seen the
backseats in action much, it sounds like the seat would get in the way of my
idea....

I drilled out the lugs on my QB. I am also swapping the flap torque tube
covers L & R so that the hole in the torque tube covers DO NOT line up with
where the lug was drilled out. It looks better having the slot in the
torque tube cover but not slot underneath showing.
