I've got seatbelts fitted to the rear of my 110 utility, not done by me but previous owner. Don't think they're original but they're 3 point and fit through the correct hole in the trim so obviously a very similar setup to the originals.

If you'd like ill take some pics Friday when I'm home if you think it'll help Cheers, David

I promised you pics but got held up pulling out my seats! I can take pics of the mods tomo and will send these. I am actually cutting the tub next but only as I will be cutting out the bulkhead and side windows so while the grinder is on why not! Also if you want my mud stuff panels are for sale, adjusted to suit proper seat belts in a hard top. Thumbs Up

Here some pics, the only mod needed is to the hinge point on the bracket, take the sping out and undo the bolts, re drill it and then back together, then add a hard rubber spacer, I then used a grinder to notch this out a little at a time until the seat came to sit level. The seat belt bracket attachs on to existing points. I used the load mat to position the bracket. We bonded and sealed basic fabricated plates on the underside and bolted through these.
