Hi there everyone,
I have just bought a 73' rag top beetle from its first private owner, the first being the garage that used it as a demo,all mot's,full history and all reciepts down to the screen wash for the last 35 years,it is in very good original condition but it has been used as a daily runner and that is exactly what i am going to do with it.
It has replaced my ford mundaino and sits proudly next to my splitty.
My question or problem is i want to fit 3 point seat belts in the back,i have found the holes with the captive nut in the floor for both sides but i can not feel the holes behind the head lining for the top part of the belt.
Can anyone tell me where i should be looking without removing the headlining.
Tim help
