Seat belt anchorage points
40inches - 28/5/09 at 06:21 PM

Can someone please measure the distance from the bottom anchorage points to the back panel?
I have 90mm, this seems very close, as the points are well behind the seats on mine

Mine are also well behind the seats but that was the only place i could weld them in more than one place

From these photos it seems that MK moved the mounts, at some point in time, from 90mm to around 160mm. Another job on the list of things to do
Thanks for the help guys.

Why the need to move it?

The mounts are around 150mm behind the harness slots in the seats and put the belt right at the back vertical edge of the slot, probably why MK moved them forward on later chassis, plus, the mount is exactly where the bracket for the starter motor will fit
