When i picked up my Turbo engine - the guy enclosed a nicepair of metro turbo seat belts.

Am thinking that these would look pretty cool in the mini - does anyone now if they are a straight swap?

they will fit but they are shorter over all and if you are small you wont be able to reach the peddals

always looking for them bigger bunches of bannanas

Like Iain says, i thought the belt joined to a rail sort of mounting on the floor or inner sill, allowing them move ??
Whereas the Mini ones bolt to the inner sill.

I think you can use the rear metro ones for the front of a mini, but not hundred% sure

Metro rears go straight in - but as hoggy says - you can't be: a) a fatty or b) someone who drives like a girl - ie 1cm away from the steering wheel.

I had a few brackets laser-cut from 4mm steel to take the front belts... Don't know where I put them mind!
