bigglesmk2 Posted July 14, 2016 Report Posted July 14, 2016 People, I'm having trouble fitting rear seat belts to my mk2.....the bolts go in and tighten up in each hole except the ones located next to the wheel arch? Its like the holes are a different size or something which seems weird? .....Any ideas of which size bolt to use or where I'm going wrong?

Admin Vista Posted July 20, 2016 Admin Report Posted July 20, 2016 What thread are the bolts you have? Mk2's are normally metric bolts, many being M8 threads but if it's an early mk2 perhaps you have some UNF threads that have crept in to it? Mk1 seat belt bolts are 7/16 UNF.

Not sure what thread they are?...The bolts have 13 stamped on the top if that helps....and the shell was registered Dec 1977, so an early'ish mk2 I wouldn't know how to tell M8 thread from a UNF? Just seems weird the same bolt will fit in all the holes except those i mentioned
