wtb Retractable Seatbelt Relocation mounts
wobblyboot - November 2nd, 2021 at 10:32 AM
I am looking for a set of brackets that relocate retractable seatbelts. I believe they came in late S Bugs (75 or maybe 76).
I realize they are rare, but maybe some around.
TIA

I think it legally has to be 3mm with radius corners and bends.

Hoffman Speedster in Germany have them online brand new. You have to buy a left and right one

Here are some photos and measurements of a passenger side bracket that I took for a bloke a few years ago so he could make some. Obviously, the
drivers side bracket would be mirror reversed.

Oh, here is a photo of the part number on the bracket. I hope this all helps.

My car was engineered and inspected by the RMS with bracket that I made from 1/4 angle iron, they were more worried about the orientation of the reel
section, I had to get an email from the seat belt maker Kliken saying that the reel could face north to south or east to west or anywhere in between
