I bought a set of static belts for my XK150 FHC a couple of years ago and just got round to looking at fitting them but there is no instructions.
Can anyone provide me with a drawing or picture of where the mountings go please?



best regards

Hello Gerry
I was faced with exactly the same issue when I fitted belts to my XK150 FHC recently. In my case they were inertia reel seatbelts, but the issues were the same, including no instructions supplied. Other than making sure they are attached to good solid rust-free steel, the main point is that the highest fitting wants to be pretty well at the same height as the top of your shoulder. Removing the trim from below the rear windows revealed a suitable point to drill through, with access for the fixing plate and nut through an existing aperture.

You can get a good idea using the examples here

That's how I worked out what to do, but please let me know if you'd like me to take some pictures.

Hope this helps

Hi Tony

Great thanks/ I have just looked and can see what you mean but what about the bolt for the bottom of the high one, I have just found another pic and they seem to use the hole where the rubber bung is on the sill, is that what you did?

Best regards

Hello Gerry,
No, I used the existing rear-most seat runner attachment holes, with suitably long and stong bolts to go through the seat runner (the part attached to the floor, not the part that moves with the seat), through the seat-belt mount, through the floor, and on through the seat-belt fixing plate (supplied with the seat beltkit).
Cheers
Tony
