<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-SIZE: small">In my Tiger, assembled in
the late summer of '66, there were mounts for lap belts under the rugs, and
for the shoulder belt on the wheel arch in the rear. They are threaded
to take the standard seat belt bolt, whatever that is, because a couple sets
I've obtained from other cars, including a Mercedes, fit right in.

<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-SIZE: small"><BR></DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-SIZE: small">I'm on the short side, and
didn't like the angle of the lap belt when using the standard mounts, so I
added a second set of mounts further forward, just by drilling holes in the
floor and using those giant washers intended for seat belt mounting</DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-SIZE: small"><BR></DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-SIZE: small">If you are in the seat and
have your belts on, the seat should be unable to tip forward. The empty
passenger seat is another issue...</DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>I must confess, when doing metal and body work, I did not think
ahead regarding seat belt mounting locations. I know with 1968 and
newer cars you are required to wear a seat belt but I am sure I want them on
any car I drive.</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><BR></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>So, what do people do regarding adding seat belts 'after'
welding is out of the question with new paint completed and carpet
installed? My MGB has welded in captive nuts for belts and shoulder
strap mounting points and I guess I was thinking the Tiger MK 1A had them as
well - bad mistake. Options now?</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><BR></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>My other concern is with the seat slider where the seats
'raise/tip' forward with no way to hold back of seat frame from tipping
forward in case of front end accident. How have folks addressed this
issue or is it a none issue?</DIV>
