Cool rear shoulder belt retrofit...underway

I've seen several threads on this but none giving a write up or even a hint as to whether someone has actually done it or not... so I've started it. I am 95% done with driver side, just need a couple spot welds and to tighten one bolt, and 50% done with passenger side. I am 100% exact cloning the way it came from the factory so there will be no concern about safety. I pulled every thing I need from my local pick-n-pull and saw how everything was from the factory. Anyways here's a really crappy picture of driver side mostly done. Note the plate doesn't match my interior... its in the works lol hard to find my color.


When I am done I willbdo a full write up.

Yes the ones before 90's I believe. They only had lap belts... not good for the little ones.

Wow thanks radio flyer. After hours of searching I didn't find that thread. That looks a little different than mine does though.
