Default Question for guys with seatbelts mounted to their seats...

If you have an aftermarket seat in your car, how did you mount the seatbelt? I picked up a used Corbeau A4 from a friend and mounted it on the stock sliders on a custom bracket I made. Now my only problem is mounting the seatbelt.

Any suggestions? How did you do it?

What is the problem with stock location?

It's attached to the seat... And there's no mount on the new set I installed.

OOOOH, my mistake. I thought we were talking actual belt, not the buckle/latch end. Isn't there a bolt on the trans tunnel that held part of the stock slider. Would it go there? Seems like it's a bit far back, but you could make up some simple brackets to extend it forward. I have not done this, so my ideas are probably invalid, and someone else has a much better answer I'm sure.

Seat belt buckle from earlier models were attached to the back bolt area but were much longer. May be able to find one.
