Retractable Seatbelts
Hi Everybody,
Anybody running retractable front 3-point seatbelts? If so, what's involved in installing them? I need to buy some new belts (pretty quick) and would love to buy retractables but am not sure where to mount the retractor. Any help you can pass along would be much appreciated. PS. I'm shopping seatbeltpros.com. Seems like a good product at a good price. Anybody used them? Thanks in advance. Matt. |

Hmmmm.... Interesting.... Never thought about mounting it to the bulkhead. I have a hardtop. Is that the preferred method for me too? I'll try and dial up Exmoor's website to get an answer too. Thanks for your help.

Wise Owl in Canada sell a good set, complete with all the fixings. If you have a hard top, you should get the bracket that fits on the inside of the roof, just behind the doors. Land Rover part #395586 and #395587. Here is the Wise Owl page.. http://www.wiseowlparts.com/catelogue2/15.html .

Installed them this weekend
Installation was a piece of cake! I bolted the L bracket for the reel into the factory-threaded hole on top of the bulkhead. That was a nice find -- and the belt bolts were the perfect size. I ended up buying three point belts with chrome lift levers instead of buttons. They cost a bit more, but man are they cool looking.
Thanks for your help, Matt. |
