Good day all, new to the site, tons of great info!!
I'm looking into installing full shoulder seat belts in my Cabby... I have 2 kids that are still in booster seats and can't really have them sitting in back with just a lap belt holding the booster seat...
I know that 1990+ cabbies have them in the rear. You might be able to take the entire rear seat from one and drop it into your cabby. Best I can figure, it would be a direct swap, shouldn't be any fitment issues that I can think of.
my 1990 only has lap belts... But, as soon as I able to run the car again, the wife is making me racing harnesses in the back seats as well as the front. She wants our son to not be able to move at all back there... When it is just he and I, he sits on a booster in the front with me.. but when wifey is in the car.. the kid has to go in the back.. i try to make her sit in back, but she just ain't havin it.
I knew some one that put a rear strut bar on just so he could drill it, and secure the belts in place with a biiiiiiig bolt.

you can get a custom seat belt bar made from Euromotive.com and put 4 points in the rear. as far as straping seat belts to a strut bars , that is a good way to get your rear seat passengers killed in an accident. the strut bar is not made to withstand lateral forces and would / will buckle under such force
I still like the idea of retro fitting seat belts for later model Cabbys ('91, '92 etc.) into the earlier model. Like Calimus said, there should be no fitment problems.
