I found a couple of these amongst a box of parts that I have. I was wondering what they are and what purpose they have.

Loop bracket for a leyland front seat lock. Stops the seat flying forward in an accident. Bolts to the floor pan.

Interesting, I have holes in the floor of my Morris in line with where these would go. I can only assume by this that at some point in its life it had Clubman seats fitted.

Cheers,

Got some like this too.
The seat has a sprung hook that clasps onto the bracket.
Pull the lever, hook releases from bracket and seat can be tilted forward to allow passengers into the back seat
