I haven't used it, but I am probably going to do it in the future. I would go for it. SOR is pretty trustworthy, and I've always been happy with their products. Sorry I can't help more.

I was thinking about getting them too................................

Appreciate it! Wife is concerned about the fj60 safety...no if I can only figure out how to install airbags!!!!

With no air bags kid can ride up front with 3 point. Also remind her the 60 can't go above 70 mph

Be aware that the shoulder portion of the SOR conversion kit is non-retracting. I went with more modern retractable rear 3 point belts from Seatbelt Planet. They were about the same price as the ones from SOR. Maybe a little less. Look in here to see how I did mine: The Rushing Turdle

I just bought FJ62 belts from Toyota. The threaded hole was in my pillar. But I did have to get weld an adapter plate for the reel. I put a thick plate on and then bolted on the reels. I think this is the cheapest way to do it, and It's all retractable.

I run the stock Toyota non retractable shoulder belts in my 60. They are a slight upgrade from just the lap belt, but retractable shoulder belts would be much better.

Same boat here in my 62. Shoulder belts give a little more peace of mind with the kids back there, but new retractables all the way around are on my list..

What model # retractable belt did you get for your 60? I'm looking to order a set from Seatbelt Planet.

Thanks!

From my Turdle thread:

I have had several inquiries regarding the seat belts I purchased and where I got them. I bought my belts from Seatbelt Planet. Part numbers are as follows and each part number is one pair of belts (2 seats worth):

Front belts - 5031235 FJ60&62 1983-90 Land Cru Dr/Pass/Dk Brown

Rear belts - 5031335 FJ60&62 1983-90 Land Cru Rear Dr/Pass /Hdw Dk Brown.

FYI for those who may follow after - The rear shoulder belt combo #5031335 including all hardware retractors and receivers for both driver and passenger sides is $250 plus shipping from Seatbelt Planet (as of 9/12/16). I got it for my wife for her anniversary gift. I'll let you know how that goes...

Does anyone have pictures of where to install the third point on FJ62? I have the three point seat belt planet setup!

Typically the end you are holding mounts where you have the retractable portion. The retractable portion mounts in the C pillar area.
