Most S1 don’t have belts… MOT man can never find ours in the S1 .My wife does not like to come out in my Series 1 soft top 1958 because it has lap belts. I have been looking online for a seat belt rail so I can fit reel type belts. I can only find them for series 2 onward. Can anyone help?
Thanks
you are probably better with the individuals rather than full bar on a series 1 as all of the bar are made for later model vehicle LINK. This way it is more likely to fit. use the lower mounting you arleady have for the plug and the bottom mount and then all you need to do is work out where to fit the inertia reel.I was looking for something like this https://www.exmoortrim.co.uk/soft-top-front-seat-belt-bar.html

They bolt to the capping which is steel. It is no different to the military roll bars which bolt to the tub capping. And is no worse than the top mount on a defender which bolts to the aluminum side panel:Be sure to bolt those to something that's sturdy, steel and bolted to something chassis shaped. Just bolting to sixty year old aluminium may be unwise.
The late lwb series has a strap from the receiver latch stalk anchor to the chassis
