Rear seat belts, could I use 4rth gen belts?
My 1986 TA does not have 3 points seat belts at the rear. When I bought it (16 years ago) I was single and didnt think about. Know I have a family and two daughters so its becoming a real issue.
So I want to fabricate 3 point rear seat belts in my TA. I have been looking for black/ebony rear seat belts (to match my interior) for 3rd gen on ebay but without luck. More often I see 4rth gen belts. It looks similar to me and I think it would be similar work but since I have only seen it on a photo I cant be sure. Any input would be welcome

You will have to convert to 3 point to do that. I am not entirely sure what is involved in that process, but your local junkyard would be a great place for the parts and references.

Thanks for the picture ,
I am in Iceland and there are no F-bodys on the junkyards. Therefore I will have to import all the parts from USA. So Ebay is usually my best source of parts.
