I have my chassis open at the moment and want to sort the seat belt mount points. Could anyone talk to me about how/where they put their mount points on the tunnel? I want to use standard 3 point inertia belts. Pictures would be even better!

When VW started fitting seatbelt mounts they were 6 to 8 inches behind the handbrake lever, 7/16" unf thread.

for the GP refurb as it had nuts and bolts into the tunnel I welded seat belt nuts onto some large thick washers then used a 30mm hole in the tunnel to weld around and secure the washer insidel.
