just need to fit my seat straps now, thought they would of had a hole at the other end with some sort of support round it, im thinking drill a hole and use a washer either side :hmm::hmm:

any one any idea where at the back of the seat they attach to, im guessing an existing bolt, so that would probably where the seat back fixes to the vertical bracket??

I would try something pointy to make a hole in the strap, force the fibres apart rather than try and drill through them. Drilling may make a mess of them and cause them to unravel.

Nooo, use a soldering iron or a heated up screwdriver tip to melt s nice neat hole in them.

if the end of the strap isnt sewn...just melt it with a lighter........and is possible use an awl to make the bolt hole.....

not sure really, there not as good looking as the originals, so ill guess plastic melty stuff.but as the material will be bolted and trapped between the seat back and the seat frame, im pretty sure any way i decide to do the hole will be fine, i think the hot screw driver sounds about the best bet :good::good:

dont quote me on this...but i believe if the vehicle wasnt fitted with seat belts at the time of manufacture ...then you dont need them...have you got seats belts for the front seats....if you have ...then it is quite likley you may require them for the rear.........

 

dont forget that bonnie has been messed about with bigstyle over the years ...and not in this country...
