    Bench Seat Belts? Empty Bench Seat Belts?

    Picked up a bench seat (the one that was listed on Craigslist in Vancouver) and it's in great shape, even in my same interior color!!

    I'm missing the brackets to attach the bench seat to the bed though and was wondering if anyone here can shed some light on what kind of bracket to use? This picture shows the rear seat connected. But I can't quite make out what type of brackets are being used. Are they just "P Clips"? Or are these specific brackets?

    I'd also like to put in some lap belts. Can anyone recommend a reputable seller? And can anyone tell me what length will I need?

    I believe these are the correct originally bench seat brackets.Bench Seat Belts? Img_3910

    Thanks for the pic chevbone! Does your seat have belts? If so, could you possible measure the length for me?

    I do not. This is a seat from a fellow vanner, sorry can't help you there.

    That might work! Although I'm not sure how/where I'd attach the auto recoiling side. The front seat belts in my '68 Handi-Van are just straight belts so I'd like to find the same kind so they match.

    I have theses in black in my van they come in different lengths....Just have someone sit in the seat and use a string to go to the floor behind the seat around there waist and back to the floor and that will give you your length..That's how I did mine..!!!..You can use a bumper bolt in that slot and bolt the seat belt to it on top of the bracket. http://www.ebay.com/itm/AQUA-SEAT-BELT-REPRO-CHROME-BUCKLE-/391005698433?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5b09c17981&vxp=mtr
