Title: Seat Belts
Post by: KFH on June 16, 2011, 10:49:47 PM
I am fitting seat belts to my rebuild and I am after a little advise.  What is the best type of buckle support to use.  Is the solid stalk better than the one using belt material one which I assume you could loose down the back of the seat.  Is there any problem with using the solid stalk with respect of getting it through the seat and also moving the seat back and forward?

We could have a bit of fun with this one Keith.........but I'll leave it to others who are more experienced than me........with seat belts that is.

I used a stalk up between the seat and back rest, through a small cut in the canvasy material.  Positioned OK for the driver and passenger but a bit close together for a third occupant (hardly ever) in the middle.

The fitment must comply with Australian Design Rules:

and I think need a certificate to be 100% legal.
