Features
- Reproduction mounting bracket for seat belts
- Steel construction for secure attachment
- Suitable for post-war safety modifications
- Requires drilling of mounting holes in body
★ Seat belts were not standard equipment on WWII military vehicles. This bracket enables modern seat belt installation for daily use or legal requirements.
Installation notes
Fitting requires drilling of mounting holes in the body. Use reinforced washers on the underside to prevent tearing. Mount to sturdy frame or floor points, not solely to thin sheet metal.
Compatibility
Note: original WWII vehicles did not have seat belts. Check local legislation for historic vehicles. In case of rollover risk (open vehicle without roll bar), the use of seat belts is controversial — consult specialists.
Historical context
Seat belts only became common in civilian vehicles in the 1950s and were not present in military jeeps during WWII. These retrofit brackets have been developed for restorers wishing to combine modern safety with classic vehicles.
