This one is for the brain trust.
Did this type of seat belt mechanism come from a mini? If so, what year and/or model?

Yes it did. I know for sure they came in clubmans (my 71 model has it) Not exactly sure of when it was introduced (I reckon about 71) I think they continued until retractable seatbelts came in (mid to late 70's not sure exactly when) But that DEFINITELY came in a mini Brenton |

Doh! Just checked, my 72' Van has them also! Pretty much identical to the Veedub one though. |

Great. They came in a mini I purchased recently. The car didnt come with any other seat belt bits. Does it normally have a square Leyland sticker on it? It looks as though it should have something. |

Is anyone able to post a picture of the seat belt tongue? A mate may have the other bit I need. |

They were identical in my 71 Clubby to those in the 74 Bug I have now. I reckon they were simply made by the same supplier. There was not many seat-belt manufacturers in early 70's Aus, and both cars were made here. Cheers, |
