theres plenty on this in the recent archives.  get a rear shoulderbelt from a
'90-'91 passenger vanagon - the only 2 years they came with rear
shoulderbelts.  the mounting holes are already there, on all westys.. even
'80 westys have the mounting holes for the 90-'91 rear shoulderbelts.   and
sorry, i sold the last 2 i had.
