Seat Belt Guides for MX5 seats


Recommended Posts

Hi All

 

Just found some seat belt guides for the double posted head rests. I've been looking for these for a while now. I've bought some and they are a very good fit.

They don't foul the hood frame and work well.

Pictures attached

 

Sorry, I really don't know why my pictures end up sideways

I have looked at these but hesitated because I thought the edges could fray the belt.... are they ok on that score?

Hi Andy

 

Yes i think so. they look good to me. When seated and you pull the belt across your chest, it doesn't rub. However Paul Copeland did say, he thought it might be a good idea to extend the length by 1/14 inch just to be sure. You can discuss that with him direct. He's very helpful.

I have something like these fitted to mine, I used to have the same type as Bill but wanted something a bit more substantial

Hi Martin

 

Yes I think that type is really good for the single post headrest, but I found that it swivels around on the double post head rest when using only 1 post. Probably due to the shape of the post - oval v round

Hi All

 

Ordered seat belt brackets from Paul arrived the following day took less than 10 minutes to fit

 

Should have had these fitted years ago

 

They work a treat

Seat belt tidies are a great idea - this is what I have fitted. Just one word of caution however, you may find the belt routing has excessive friction that impedes inertia reel belts from easily retracting if you have a roll bar fitted and/or use a cover over your folded soft top. It does depend on roll bar type, seat type and location of the belt guide bolted to the car side.

Yes I've just fitted them. They adjust so fit perfect. I may have to be careful when lowering the hood

as they are close to the frame but not touching.
