Rear Seat Belts

[European Voyager]

HI 

 

I have recently got myself a 1973 PI , I also have a very young family and would like help with fitting rear seat belts . I would like to fit Inertia reel seat belts and have read on the net it can be difficult to align the reel correctly but took most of it with a pinch of salt . Can anyone who has done this please advise how it was done and if it works well.  Pictures would be great . I've not had time to remove the seat at the rear to see if there are mounting points fitted . 

The car is very solid and I've no problems fitting strengthening plates if required as I'm a mechanic to trade and still in the Trade.

 

Thanks in anticipation

yes inertia reel pendulum box will foul the Rr 1/4  headlining  the cadge nuts are at the extreme ends of the rear deck panel 

there are nuts under the seat base  the rear panel are under the trim covering 

the N/S fits ok its the O/S that needs some spacing  my offset is not the best idea as it could move if in an impact 

but for general use its ok and does pass its MOT ok 

getting the seat squab back in can be a fight to drop it behind its locations

as you can see the belt reel is at  a bit of angle but it runs and locks fine like that 

a move to relocate a new position above the fuel tank is whats needed but thats another day....or not
