Abstract
A cavity and channel system within a seat back is adapted to provide design flexibility in locating isofix attachment rods. The system includes a rear cavity for receiving the isofix rod and a channel which extends through the seat back. A plate is designed to substantially close the rear of the cavity to prevent wind and noise issues, and a tunnel is attached to the front of the plate to provide the appearance of a smooth seam when a child seat is not in use.
