Can anyone give me the dims and thickness of material etc of the seat belt mount brackets, mine had completely rusted away so no reference. Like the one in the picture below. Thanks in advance.

yeah mine had rusted away too
Unfortunately in the last eight year I have forgotten the dimensions.
I think it were 3mm steel plate, drilled and a seat belt nut welded on.
I'm sure someone with the body off will give you the correct measurements - does not need to be exact but within a mm or 2 is ok.



I've wrapped the outriggers with Denso tape

Before:

After:

Thicker steel, different shape, critical bit was the location of the nut.

Thanks all very useful info and pictures. Hopefully get these and the rest of the plates done over Christmas ready for blast and paint.

My version based on your design, with the dims for manufacture. No hole as need to check where the hole sits with body on. These are made, just need to go collect them.
