Rear Seatbelts in a Traveller

I have a '68 traveller, and I have 3-point seatbelts in the front which have been fitted, but I am looking to update these. This should be pretty easy as there is already the anchor plates in place, but I am looking to put some in the back too. Now with the saloon model, it has been made clear where to fix the top anchor point. Now in a traveller this is slightly more difficult. Please could somebody point me in the right direction as to where to fit it. Do I put it into the wood, the back of the seat, the floor or what?

Cheers for your help.
Tom

I have inertia rear sealt belts. Fit the reel onto the top of the rear wheel arch (you may need to reinforce from underneath) and the "stalk" part is bolted to the rear floor and come up between the seats. The Traveller floor is only made of thin wood, the belts need to be bolted to steel.

Don't fit them to the wood side rails they are not strong enough to take the strain in the event of a bump
