Seat Belts

Post by Kerri75 »

Can anyone tell me how would you fit full seat belts to a 3/4 rock and roll bed, where on earth do they attach to?

I got lap belts (from Just Kampers) they are attached to the bodywork in the 'compartment' under the bed/seat, and are fed through the back of the seat base... I don't know if that even makes sense, I can take a photo if you like.
Has anyone seen my marbles?
No...oh, wait...I never had any :)

If your van is came from the factory as a camper it will have seat belt mounts if panel van the no!

I have the correct part number for a 3 point belt from VW should you require it. There about 90 quid

Hi

I found this post very helpful.

http://archive.club8090.co.uk/viewtopic ... =seatbelts

I could only fit 1 full belt and 1 lap belt because of the the cupboards.

This should help you find out if your van has the factory fixing holes.

After much headscratching I decided to fit rear 3 point belts in mine. I ordered mounting plates and belts from JK and got the father in law (plumber) to weld them in the correct position. I have the standard lay out so obviously there was a big cupboard in the way on one side, so I just worked out what angle the seat belt would be at and cut a hole in the cupboard where the belt came through. I had to do quite a lot of stripping to allow access to the welding points, but it wasn't that much of a job, and worth the extra effort I think.
