Hi Folks
I want to fit 3 point static belts to my 58A, the floor location points are no problem but I'm not sure about the top location position ie the fitment to the inner rear wing. Do any of you have pics/diagrams measurement of this location point?
Thank you for listening.
Rosco.

Rosco,
My belts were fitted by the importer AFN. If you click the 'board index' top left and then scroll down to members Porsche gallery. Then click ' 50 years driving my 356 Part two the photos.'
Scroll down the first page to photo 5 which shows the interior of my car which shows the position on the rear side wall of the fixing bracket in chrome. The fixing plate that you secure into the reception can be adjusted so it clips over the clothes hook near the top headlining. Makes it less messy as its of course not retractable.
Might help, and might depends on the fixings you have. With my position the belt is in the correct position over my shoulder. Get someone to hold the side wall fixing by hand in place and see how the belt feels in that position. You should have metal straps under the nuts securing the side wall fixing.
