To install a shoulder belt on the right rear of my 1987 Westy I followed
the hints on Tom's webpage:

<http://volksweb.relitech.com/helmut/RearSeatBelt/RSFB_001.HTM>

Pretty straight forward but:  The part numbers are for the belts only,
make sure that you get all the mounting bolts as well.  Also, the new
buckle would not fit the old receiver so I had to order that as well.

GoWesty has aftermarket belts, including one for the left side (belt has
to run through the closet).  It looks like their kit mounts the belt
retractor high on the van's wall.  This would eliminate having to trim the
one wall panel.

Has anyone installed a shoulder belt on the left side of a Westy?  How
much does it intrude into the closet?

Thanks,
