    Seat Belt Question

    When using the stock WRX wagon seat belts, where do you mount the lower bolt?

    One of the great unanswered questions in the assembly manual. In essence, as far as I can tell, you are on your own to engineer the solution. I am working through this problem now. But I believe the build section and this area will provide some ways on attaching that end of the seat belt.

    There are a few threads on the subject if you search.

    Most drill and bolt through the outer bottom square tube. You will have to find a longer, high quality bolt and some thick fender washers to prevent crushing the tube or pull through.

    The seatbelt locations are not covered in the manual because what works for one driver/seat combination could be fatal for another. This is one of those things that requires a bit of common sense and enough modesty to raise the white flag and call for help if you aren't sure of yourself.
