Seat Belt , Sholder Belt mount options for a Series 88 soft top.

[TJR]

Good evening, I'm looking for some product feedback. For a Series III 88 with a soft top, does anyone have any positive or negative experience (fitment, quality, heft...etc?) with either of the following shoulder harness mounting option offer by RN?


Raised Seat Belt Bracket Set Series & Defender
Model #: RNA0016
Raised Seat Belt Bracket Set Series & Defender RNA0016 | Rovers North - Land Rover Parts and Accessories Since 1979



Soft Top Front Seat Belt Bar For Defender Series
Model #: EXT500-1
Exmoor Trim Icon Exmoor Trim Part
Soft Top Front Seat Belt Bar For Defender Series EXT500-1 | Rovers North - Land Rover Parts and Accessories Since 1979


I've seen online videos of the one piece EXT500-1 used in restorations, and it looks decent, but the lateral cross bar seems like it could be in the way ?

Any installed pics of the single stanchion , 3-legged style to reference?

Thanks in advance... TJR

Wondering the same thing.
I'd like shoulder belts but I don't want it to be a big ordeal installing them.

Original 3 point Belts for the S2/2A and indeed early S3 , had the shoulder belt attached to the rear tub capping but its not recommended now as the loading pulls you down in the seat rather than restraining forward movement.

Rovers North has a hoop set for shoulder belts but I couldn't find an installed photo.
