I’m installing Seat Belt Planet 3-point belts in the rear of my truck and trying to get it to look stock like in a US market 62, but ran into some snags. So I made this bracket.

I’m not sure if there would be any interest so I’m throwing it out there for the peanut gallery to comment on.

My goal is to utilize the plastic covers from a 62 to cover the retractors, and then use some 62-length cargo panels in place of the 60-length ones (hey, I already make those - convenient). The plastic covers have a depth of 30mm, but the SBP retractors are 60mm deep. The belt comes out 17mm from the edge with the attachment point for the bolt. A little math … I’m still going to have to cut away some sheet metal to get the depth right, but then the retractor’s fastening point is no longer in the same plane as the sheet metal. Meaning it’s got nowhere to bolt to.

That’s where the offset bracket comes in. There’s a pinch weld just above the wheel well, and the two smaller holes in each bracket will bolt through the pinch weld with hardened M8 bolts. The single hole for attaching the retractor will use the stock hardware that comes with the SBP stuff.

This is a lot to explain, and niche. It’s really only serving a very specific application - mine. But maybe other people want to go down this road? Maybe the brackets can be used beyond my specific application, but I’m not sure.

I haven’t test fit these yet, so I’m not sure if they need tweaks. I’m just fishing for general thoughts. So … thoughts?

Side note:

The LED-modified flasher modules are verified to work on mid-80s Tercels (AL35 model) as well. I’m betting these work in a lot of Toyota vehicles from the era.
