I thought I has seen someone do it, but cannot find it in the search. I'd like to put shoulder\lab belts in vs having just the lap belts. -al

I'm in process of gathering parts. I have seen some SWB Gen1's in the yards with factory rear shoulder belts. But I can't find any dark grey. The very few I have seen were tan or light grey (yuck!) All the mounting points are there, they just have plugs in the holes.

It looks like a direct bolt-in. In theory, it should take under a half hour. I'd make sure to get the buckle end, too, in case they are different.

I remember someone doing this, too, but it was quite a few years ago that I read about it.

The v-6 models all had them, and what was it...'88-up 4 cylinders?

I've got a set of blue ones from my '89 V6 Raider. That'll look super ugly in a tan interior, though.

As far as the ends go, the 3-points that I put in the 87 buckle fine into the Gen II jumpers I have in it.

Don't know if they're the same, but I've got a set of tan rear seatbelts from a LWB '89 montero. I'll stop by the storage unit tomorrow to see if they're the same or not.

TrailRaider what yards were you able to find them at. I have no such luck looking in my vicinity.
