Early 02 with 3-Pt Seat Belt & Rear Subwoofer Compatabil

[asaquattro]

'Just wondering if anyone out there that has a Rear Subwoofer setup from Eurotrash also has the 3-point Seat Belt setup shown below. I have a 1970 2002 which currently has a 2-point lap belt set-up. I've been wanting to convert to a 3-point Seat Belt Setup. I was informed that I could convert to the system shown below. However, when I noticed where the retractor was placed, I was wondering if it would interfere with the subwoofer enclosure underneath the rear bench seat.

I was just checking to see if anyone was out there that happened to also have the subwoofer enclosure and the same 3-point seat belt conversion. I was hoping to get confirmation if the subwoofer enclosure would interfere with the seat belt retractor or not.

on the rear seat riser vs under the back seat. Reinforce the bolt hole with a pair of large fender washers, and glue a little piece of leather on the edge of the seat cushion to the seat belt won't wear the upholstery. That'll give you plenty of clearance for the subwoofers, and the belt will retract better.

Been working for me since the late 70s...

cheers

Thanks for your input, Mike!

Mike--Since my seat belt install photo, I have installed a molded sleeve that fits over the belt to avoid chafing next to the seat. These are available at many online belt vendors.

If you used an e21 belt or similar then it has a system to keep the belt away from the feet of people getting in the back:

I have special BMW sleeves that can be installed on the retractor to prevent webbing from rubbing. But I don't know if the subwoofer will interfere with the retractor or not, which is a slightly different issue.
