            I am interested to see what people do with the factory seat belts since you have to remove the slider bar .

              in my swap i used an exhaust hanger and just drilled it into the floor with reinforcements that way the lap belt was still removable but also safe and succure

                I don't have any good pics but I have Vaders in my car. I made the brackets out of 1/4 inch steel rather than drilling the unibody which I have heard others have done.

                I bolted the belts to the brackets I fabricated (which are bolted to the floor using the stock seat belt holds) using 1/4 inch angle iron and grade 8 bolts making sure not to kink the seat belt webbing (nylong webbing is strongest when it is not folded or kinked).

                I am currently trying to source some sedan seat belts because I believe that bolting the end of the lap belt to the B-pillar using the stock mounting point for the slider bar is probably better overall.

                  I kept the bars in place.

                    the link doesnt work :(, im having some troubles :S , ive got the brackets and works great, but the problems are the seatbelt When you put it in without modifing the nipple . the seatbelt sensor from the car came 2 wires to the connector and the vares has a 3 wires connector so im confused .this seat has the pyrotechnic protection ? any one knows how i can make it work? which wire must be connected?.
