Thread: Seat mounted seat bealts options?

Other the welding nuts to the pillar and getting them engineered... or a complete body swap....

IS there another way of getting rid of the seat mounted seatbelts, cause I'm looking at some jap car seats from a wreckers but I cant see it working without mounting the seatbelt to the pillar

Its a pretty simple kit, basically a piece of steel bar around 150mm long, 25mm wide, 10+mm thick. It has a hole drilled and tapped in the middle (75mm down) for the seat belt bolt, and a small hole drilled above and below the seatbelt hole. You simply cut a hole in the bottom of the B pillar (on the inside), drill a hole where you want the seatbelt bolt to go, and the smaller holes top and bottom (these are for pop rivets), drop something down the pillar to pull up the metal bar, somehow hold the thing up, pop rivet it in place, stick the seat belt on , weld the hole down the bottom and your done.
I had these in my 84, can't remember if i kept them or they went to scrap, but i did actually buy these from Ritters
