If you want some more light reading the fire rebuild thread is here so you can fully understand the analogy: LINK and it has already had a galv chassis fitted previously.

As yours is a hardtop fitting seatbelts should not be that difficult. Does it have any seatbelts (static belts/lapbelts/etc) at the moment or does it have nothing? You should be able to get the front three easily using original series or defender parts. I wouldn’t worry about fitting ones in the back if you have side facing seats as they are not a legal requirement. That is the setup I have in mine. But my series III is a soft top so a little more challenging to get the top shoulder mount than a hardtop. Do you have a parts manual?

Your pictures don’t look like the uk. Where are you based (apologies if you have said) as rules and regulations are the biggest challenge with seatbelts and baby seats. I have just bought a seatbelt attachment child seat that goes from newborn to six years old (I think) to go in mine. The challenge was finding one that didn’t need isofix!

Hi again,

Apologies for the late reply! I had a look through the pictures from the link you sent wow, what an incredible amount of work you’ve done!

Regarding the seatbelts, there’s nothing installed at the moment. In the summer, we’re planning to take the roof off. I’ve got the workshop manual, but I haven’t picked up the parts manual yet.

And yes, you’re right! I’m now living in Spain, near Valencia. From what I understand, the regulations here aren’t too strict about seatbelt fittings if the car originally came from the factory without them.

Thanks again for your help
