Title: Seatbelts into FE ute Post by: mal on August 01, 2003, 01:01:29 AM Hi Folks,
Can anyone offer me advice on installing seatbelts into an FE ute? Are there any existing point that I can mount them?? I would assume not. Does anyone manufacture a kit that has pre-fabricated mounting point to weld in- or do i need to make them myself? I am located in Melbourne. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A) No B) Not that I know of - you will have to make them yourself. The rules are the same for all seatbelt attaching points. 75mm x 50mm x 2mm plate with rounded corners. Nut should be attached to the plate and the plate attached to the rear of the panel. With a ute you have the choice of mounting the retractor on the parcel shelf or on the floor like you would in a sedan.

Do you(or anyone else) know if the Vic FE/FC Club will have a stand at the Holden/Ford show this coming weekend at the Exhibition Center in Melbourne? I am interested in joining the club, and have heaps of questions on re-building my FE ute. Cheers- Mal |
