I have 3 point inertial belts for the driver and passenger that came from the PO uninstalled. I've had them installed since I took ownership, however I wasn't able to determine where the reels mounted- I have a 2 door 109 with a full length hard top. I have the stalks, seat box and shoulder mounted correctly, this much I know. I ended up mounting the coils behind the seat on the folded lip of sheet metal on the seat base, not at all proper. To remedy this, I just ordered from our hosts the hardware for mounting the coils, however it is lacking in clear instructions as to where it actually goes. The brackets are 2 part affairs, and are also huge, not at all what I was expecting.
Below is the print out they sent- it shows a pop rivet and 2 bolts attaching the larger, lower L-bracket. Does this attach to the bulkhead, and if so, where? I was under the impression the coil actually went behind the bulkhead in the load area somehow. Does anyone have this setup, or a different one, and can lend some advice. I wouldn't mind an alternative as these brackets were quite pricey for what they do, and seems like there could be a simpler method to attaching the coil to something sturdy.
