Fitting after market seat

[O'Neill]

Have a recaro profi spg with side mounts, will purchase vac floor mounts.

How do you fit oem seat belt receptacle? Do I need to buy another item? I can't find any info on here.

Cheers

Just had a look at my recaro spa's. OEM seat belt locks are bolted on to the near side of the seat with the piggy back retraction assembly. It appears they've simply used a template off the oem seat and then pilot holed the new mounting holes.

Something to be aware of if you're DIY'ing. Take a measurement of the exact position of the belt retainer location on the OEM seat before you remove. This is to ensure the belt doesn't sit to high across your right shoulder resulting in neck rash with the belt material.....My retainer was a tad high which on a long journey was a pain in the neck literally.

I was advised to keep the oem belts in situ to avoid any officious MOT testers pulling a face at the race 6 point harnesses.

Is it mounted to the slider as oem. Turner make a mount which is mounted between slider and side mount. That's a lot of mounts

Can I tap and dye the receptacle to the side mount?
