Default Rear seat crotch strap
Are most RV-10 builders using the five point harness for the rear seats? If not are you removing or omitting the crotch attach piont?
Thanks Ron

I didn' use them. I bent the tabs over and carpeted over the tabs. Probably will never chang to 5 pt but if the next owner wants to they can.

Default removed tab redesigned seat cushion
We removed the tabs and had the seat cushion cut straight across which adds to comfort and makes it easier to cover.

Thanks, that's what we're planning on doing. We thought about omitting them while building but desided to leave that desision for later. We are now later.

I used the holes for the fifth point to instead hold a bracket for a snap bushing to hold the flap motor wires.
