Rear Seat Belt Question

Hey everyone,

I am in the process of ordering a set of seat belts for the humvee. Has anyone here relocated the rear shoulder retractor unit from the "outside" the cab to "inside" the cab?

I read somewhere that you can do this for a cleaner look for a soft top but can't seem to find any info on mount locations or if it is different part(s). Pics are always appreciated too (y)

I would recommend when it comes to safety use true and tried parts. The rear bracket kit is the OE solution for the non armored versions. Which truck do you have?

The correct soft top rear curtain for a 4man will have the pockets for the seat belt, btw.

FWIW

I have a M1025A2 that will have the hard top deleted and B & C pillars added for soft top. I don't want to compromise safety, so if the standard location is the safe way to do this then that answers my question!

The kit also comes with an under the fender reinforcement if your truck does not have it. Those towers are pretty tough. I just feel OE solutions for seat belts have been engineered and tested for that application.
imho.
