Chuck in stupid too in that case. It's just not going to do any good in a crash - remembering that not all crashes are your fault.

Just seems odd to deliberately do it.

Thanks - Bye.

Where would you suggest I put them ?

Anchor points that the seatbelts went into temporarily?

Exactly

It's already beefed up enough to take the load

Screw one of these in

Thread your belt into one of these

Check the angle that suggests, but IIRC as long as it's better than 45 degrees you're safe.

Don't mount to the C pillar - in a rear ender that compresses & you get a load of slack in the belt.

Maybe reinstall OE belt, when the harness are pulled tight you'll be bending that rear brace
It only uses M12 all thread either end

Better broken shoulders than dead though?

45 degrees is the magic number though - protractor & plumb bob?

When you say Magic mork, don't you mean absolute worst case?

45 is the steepest you should run your belts really, but the higher the better. About 10 degrees off horizontal is best, as that way they're almost perpendicular to the back of the seat in most cases:

I agree though, Dan's belts are dangerous like that. 2 passengers at ~80kg each in a head on. You can't expect a thin strut brace to take a 160kg load at 90 degrees to it's intended loading plane.

Yeah, sorry - I meant 'worst' case!

I still think it's achievable with a low seat & standard rear mount.

Well there the only places I can mount them I don't have any of those hooks left or eyelets and I'm on site for 730 tomorrow , so what would be safer where they are now at the top brace down on the bottom brace or round the iso fix points ,

Saying that last time I was in a crash when two people hit me they was on the iso fix points and they was fine
