Pete,

Thanks for all the help the last couple months. The Gbar is in, the car is painted and just doing the little things now. I have a question about seat belts on your build. I took your lead and am putting in the fox light bar from CDC. (I can't believe I actually found them since they no longer produce them.) I also want to put 3 pt belts lin and am a little unsure how the upper attachment point on the B pilar is going to work. I also have the Shelby interion panels and want the whole mechanism hidden from view. Do you have a picture of the upper belt mounting point or remember how you handled this? Thanks AGAIN!

Hey Darreld-
I can't find a pic for some reason out of my 1000+ pics of the build.

The inertia reel was mounted to a reinforced area behind the door in the area above where the rear window crank would have been. Everything was concealed by the large Shelby-style interior quarter trim panel. The belt exited through a horizontal slot near the top edge of the front face of that trim panel.

Ha! I guess this thread can still be useful after all this time. It's pushing 100,000 views!

Thanks Pete. The car is getting the new fabric top today and I think we have a game plan on the attachment point. After the top is done we can go full speed ahead on the bar. Just need to see about clearance. I would hate to get it in and then not be able to put the top up.

Helllllooooooooooooo

Lost of folks still checking out this thread. I know I've been quiet for quite some time.

What's up?

Ya Pete, way too quiet! Maybe you should give us some updates on some of your latest projects. I have been checking them out on your site and I think everyone here would be quite interested in what you have been up to.
David.

nothing like digging up an old thread, but one thing I never saw explained was how you did the work-around for the pats system. I have heard you can get a programmer to disable it, I just wondered how it was done on this project. Helluva nice ride, I applaud all your work.

I guess there was a reason I didn't explain it at the time...

Piggyback chip in the ECU with custom tuning.
