I would be interested in some of you posting pictures of your seat belt set up! How and where you attached for front and back...

Hi Aaron,
I'm using the same belt kit set up as shown in the two photos at the bottom of this post:

Non-retractable, 60-inch, military green, with snap-hook to eye bolt end fittings and mounting kit made by Andover here:

I'll have to take a couple of photos. I don't think any are in my album.

Hey Ron,

If you throw a hand signal up in SC you might get shot or someone will shoot you the bird back. Point being that if you are under 40 years old, they won't know (or care) what a hand signal is anyway - despite the fact that it is in the drivers manual. I guess it still is anyway. That's why I went ahead and put turn signals on my a1 and will have them on the new a1 too.
