ISO fitting/welding

[FCorps]

Hi all, so I have been trying various kiddie seats for my newborn. Have managed to get one style to fit so far with an adapter but it never quite sits right and always felt a bit janky.

The kid loves the supra, and I love driving her in it (rather than the boring family car) so was thinking about a slightly more permanant/safer option...bear with me - this is just a thought! 

Was pondering welding an ISO fitting onto the bodywork behind the back seat, coming through the lower seats in the back

 

Have had the back seats off and was wondering if anyone knows what is immediately behind the back seat, passenger side - essentially where your lower back is when sitting.

 

Have looked for some exploded diagrams but cannot see what is there. Of course worried in case there is something importa t immediately behind there and whether I can get away with a quick weld in that area. 

 

Any thoughts?

For anyone else interested in trying this -  Was a success.

 

I ended up sliding under and having a good look around on the underside first which was a bit painful without a pit.

 

There is nothing behind this area apart from a set of cables on the far right but they float around 2cm away from the surface.

 

I tack welded this plate on and also bolted through to some plates on the underside as well as this panel framework is only about 1mm thick.

 

I now have a very solid/welded ISO fixing poking through the back seats.
