Just a bit of advice guys, if you are putting side and middle belts in i.e. RH, LH and centre the ADR’s now require a separate anchor point for all belts. I had to redo mine as I only had one either side of the tunnel for the side buckles and the centre lap belt.

thanks for that guys , and i apologies for my 150 x35 size that I quoted. Its not even the size I cut in the shed mine are 150 x 30 which might need some adjusting. The ADR states The device must be shaped to match the contour of the mounting surface and must have an area of not less than 3750 mm² in contact with the mounting surface. 150 x 30 = 4500mm² which seems to much, I should of been closer to 25 width or 125mm in length. My 75 x 50 plates are right on the minimum value of 3750, and i will now cut up my 100 x 75 making the extra middle plates. Lucky I have not gone to far with this..  |

I wouldn’t be overly concerned about the oversized plates, it’s better to be to large than to small. From memory I made my plates 100x75x3mm for the parcel shelf and inner guards, 200x75x3mm for the b pillars and I changed the floor plate to 1000x100x3mm and bent it to fit under the tunnel.

Sorry Wayno for slower response... I'm guessing your talking about the lower lower rear quart panel, my answer is just buy one and welder it in.  |

Mate got tailgate skins $150 from Qld mob on eBay, not Taylor’s. reckons they’re good. He was up that way so didn’t have to pay freight, and he reckoned was a good price. Either way they are both half the rare spares price if you can deal with the freight.
