<VV> Seat extenders

[vair140 at aol.com]

OK Matt, here is the run down with our Saturday night tech session with the seat belt extenders.  The extenders are truely just a bolt in but then again so is the engine!  We started on them about 10:15 and finnished around midnight.  JR will attest to the fact that they are a pain in the as** to iinstall.  If installed above the carpets the floor studs are too short.  One extender had to have one of the holes elongated.  We chose to install under the carpet and never having done it before it took forever to get holes aligned and holes cut.  The drivers center seat belt had to be remove to get a hand under the carpet. We only did one seat but that was more than enough entertainment for one night, by the time I got JR home I made it to bed a 2am.

Regards,

he bolts coming up from the floor are too 
hort and the floor dips down to the ponint where the extenders don't make any 
ontact at all with the floor.  I don't know how you can mount them with out 
odifying the car, maybe coupes are different.
