How to: Adding After Market Rear Seat Belts to a Panel
I installed a back seat in my 08 Panel. This required seat belts. I opted for new after market belts. This process was a bit of a beating, (I couldn't find anyone who had seat belt pics for this process or info on the bolts and spacers) but now that I know what to do and look for, it'd be easy. I took some pictures too so if you need this info let me know and I will send it or post em up.
Key issues are:
Tapping (4) holes.
Finding correct bolts
Using correct spacers
Problems with holes
Thrilled with the final product. Belts look great and work. Seat in my panel is so cool.

At the direction of the administrator I will post the process and the pics here this weekend.

Step 1) Remove all interior rear panels. Lower First, then Upper
Note: take care removing pass. side panel to disconnect power port.
Step 2) Tap hole for Shoulder Harness - use 12M x 1.75 tap
Step 3) Tap hole for Belt Anchor - use 12M x 1.75 tap
Step 4) Install Belt Retractor. (Mine came with 10m x 35m bolts and I had
to purchase 12m bolts to fit this hole that is factory threaded. I
had drill out the mounting hole slightly for the larger bolt.)
Step 5) Replace upper and lower Panels.
