Seat belt mounting point measurement

Post by Andrew1967 »

Quick question...

Can someone give me the measurement, 'centre to centre' of the door pillar seat belt anchorage to inner sill seat belt anchorage point please.

Lower position door pillar anchorage - not earlier

cheers :)

If that's not what you want, tell me. I have a Mk2 restored using only original BL/BMC panels. And it'll tell you in inches too!

Thanks David :)

Peter, if you could have a measure, would be appreciated, just to corroborate David's measurement. :)

Anyone with a car with original inner sill/s ?

This is just to give me another measurement to help assure alignment of the new floor.

Andrew,

I have a 62 car with high mount with original inner sills. I can measure down to where the lower mount point should be and give you the distance from there. Hopefully someone else should come up with original measurements.

Here you go, I found the M/machine floor had the lower belt hole different to the original so I corrected that, it should be 76mm from the companion box.
