Seatbelt attachment on late series/Pathfinder roll bar.

Post by cascade.king »

Does anyone know what size the threads are on the shoulder belt mount position on the roll bar of the late series/Pathfinder? I was going to order the hardware, but wasn't sure that the bolt that fits the air cooled VW shoulder mount would match.

I would not have thought they would be much bigger than 10mm but would have a "shoulder" which would be 12 or 14mm. Most common thread pitch would probably be 1.5 but they could possibly be 1.25.

Do you have a tap and die set? Would be easy enough to test the size if you did.

Pathfinders are not very common in the UK, so unless they used the same metal hoop I can't even go out and measure mine for you.

The bolts that are for the lap belts thread into shoulder mounts on roll bar.
