Resurrection.......

I've decided to install 3 point retractable belts up front vs harnesses until a roll bar is installed. I'm leaning towards this simple design from Seatbelt Planet:

Morris Classic Concept is the other consideration but I don't like the retractor position that leaves two belt straps and the retractor in the small opening behind the seat which I tend to use frequently. Also the visible shoulder mount extension in the quarter window isn't as cleanest a visually.

I'm speculating where to mount the retractor unit. I'd like it inconspicuous but do not want to compromise mount strength and function. Here's what I thinking:



The retractor hides in the corner and allows plenty hip clearance when I'm sitting in the rear seat, though the rear seat seldom gets use in this car.

I believe I could use a strap similar to the photo below to mount the retractor to the floor/rocker area, reinforcing the mounting point if necessary.



I'd appreciate your advice, concerns, and suggestions. :thumbsup
