Guy and and a growing no of girls,

 

Right first off, what's involved in changing the rear seat belt's it to uk speck ones, i.e. 3 point fitting, also how do i go about changing the front belts so they are not on the doors, obviously this is a jspec :rolleyes:

 

And lastly, anybody know how to fit the rear window in a tailgate tub? is it a case of bonding the widow to the fiber glass or what, real stuck on this one :headvswal and wanna fit it tommorow nite (finish work at 5 so post's before then please.) :bow: :bow: :bow:

 

Many thanks inadvance.

Not sure how you can convert unless you have all the black trims. Not only from a UK though. The 1994 Jap TT I have just dismantled has 3 point rer belts and front belts are not on doors either.

I put 3 point rear belts in mine a couple of weeks ago. You have to remove the rear seats and the side panels, then just remove the old belts and bolt the new ones in place. I had already put a UK spec alcantara interior in mine though, so the slots for the UK belts were already there. I also had to drill a hole in the side trim for the upper bolt.

 

The front belts are a different matter. I was planning to do those too, but although the holes are there for the pillar mounted belts, they don't have the threaded plates welded in, so I can't do the conversion as far as I can tell. :(

 

I'd take things apart and make sure you have the threaded plates, rather than just a hole, before you buy replacement belts if I were you.

you can try and put the same size nut on a bolt and try to get it in the hole, then weld in the nut and unscrew the bolt and see if it would fit that way.

i thought about doing that sort of thing, but the metal around the hole seems pretty flexible. The welded plate stiffens it up a lot and would spread the load. I suppose I could weld a plate over the top but I don't really want to risk it not holding if I do have a crash and it's not as strong as a factory fitted one! :eek:

just a thought with the belts, prob just keep them as nissan intended, more concerned about getting the rear window in, if any body has any ideas, would be agreat help.

 

cheers for the responses though guys

Will the J Spec door pillar be strong enough to hold UK belt?

Bump...
