Rear seat belts

I'm after fitting a third sea belt in the rear of a t25 camper. I have just seen this for sale and wondered if it would fit and whether it's doable as a complete novice.
'vw camper seat belt - non inertia reel type, suit bay window camper model front seat location' in good nic.

hi,
I'm a novice too but I've learnt a couple of things.
if you have an original camper you'll have a top mount at the back already there. on the pillar behind the last window
If you buy the rear seatbelt kit from say Just Kampers you can bolt it in yourself. The kit comes with instructions although the images are poor.
JK told me on the phone their rear setbelt for T25s is in fact a front seat belt for a transit - but they include the original metal stalk and a flexible fabric buckle which is the one you want so it goes down inbetween the seat when you convert to a bed.
If like me you have a panel conversion then the top mount is just a dimple from what I've read on brickwerks site and from looking at my camper compared to photos of insides. If you have this you need to weld in a top mount and thats where it gets tricky hence my question a day or so ago asking for photos of panelvan conversions campers with rear seat belts.
Hope that helps

I just had a proper 3-point inertia fitted in the back using the rear post for £120 CASH all-in (took him a fair while to fit too)

BUT, if you only want an occasional belt, i've got a nearly new lap-belt you can have - I fitted it myself in about 20 mins!
