I am considering installing 3 point retractable belts in my 66 Charger. I recall someone mentioning a kit that used a plate behind the coat hook mount. I'm hoping whoever mentioned it still has a link to it.
Look up optional shoulder belts for 67 B bodies, they were available. I made a message about this somewhere.I am considering installing 3 point retractable belts in my 66 Charger.

If you end up installing these, do you mind sharing pics? My original plan was to be as cavalier as I usually am and go lap straps only like all my other classics have been in the past. Drivers in my area are definitely getting worse over the last few years, and I am thinking maybe not a bad plan to have shoulder harness in place...I searched some more and found it. It was in the 66-67 forum not the Charger forum, thanks. FYI it is a kit from Seat Belts Plus for 64-67 Mopar B Bodies. It looks like it will work in the Charger.![]()
I'll post some pictures with the headliner removed here soon. I have been seriously considering spending the extra and going with 4 point harnesses. My car is going to be the more rough-and-tough look to begin with, so I think it can pull it off.I am busy completing an engine swap right now, so I may not be digging into the interior for a while. Do you have any pictures with the headliner removed where you can see the structure of the roof rail?
I feel the same way about needing a shoulder harness. My cuda originally had the two piece belt system, and I felt a lot better after I installed the retractable system in that car.

No, I felt like that would make the rear seats challenging to use. While I don't plan to use them often, I still want them accessible. The OMP harnesses I got are designed for "floor mounting" IE they bolt through the floorpan with a massive super chunky washer on the outside as reinforcement.So are you putting a crossbar behind the seats to mount the shoulder belts?
