    Changing seats in '82 RRC- seatbelt in seat :(

    Hi all
    I have an 82 rangie and I'm looking to upgrade the rubbish torn and mouldy seat to a later model seat, but the drama is the seat belts being incorporated into the seats (wtf)
    I've popped the trim off the side pillar and looks weak as.

    What to do ?
    Cheers

    There is a kit available to fit seat belts to the pillar, give Ritters a call, they may still have some left.

    Do a search, there a few threads around about fitting later model and aftermarket seats.

    I did this to my 2 door.
    I got some 4mm plate and cut it to fit inside the B pillar about 40mm wide and 150mm long, I welded on a seat belt bolt coresponding nut and drilled two holes 30mm from top and bottom to accept pop rivets .I then drilled a hole in the B pillar where the standard seat belt attaches in a four door and two holes one upper and one lower for the pop rivets. Some how I fed the plate inside the B pillar and brought it up with string/tie wire and swearing.
    Then pop riveted in place .
    On the floor I put a plate to take the bottom mount for the inetia reel.
    It was a bit of work .
