Morris Minor Owners Club

Hi All,

Been away for a while and the moggie has been garaged… the reason being related to this question… Having made it though the first 7 months of fatherhood I am back on the case and keen to get the little’un ‘onboard’!

I’ve been on the phone to Bull motif and asked about rear seat belts so I can secure the baby seat. They say the inertia ones CAN NOT be fitted to a convertible – I have to fit the 3 point static ones:

Has anyone else got experience of fitting rear seat belts to a convertible? Is there any way of fitting the inertia ones or should I go for the static ones?

Thanks all

i have a convertible and have inertia real seat belts in mine..

i am not happy about the way they have been fitted though.. did bullmotif give a reason why you can not fit them?

They just said 'can't be fitted'!

PM sent.

Just in case anyone else is going to do this I thought I'd mention that you can buy rear inertia seatbelts for a convertible and fit the reels in the boot compartment. Morris Minor centre Bath have appropriate parts should you need them.

Also thanks to Peetee for the help

They are covering themselves against liability as it would be possible that the folded hood would rest on top and could foul the mechanism.

Glad you got it sorted!
