Seat/Seat belt dimensions
 

Hello All,just to save me brain-ache and pain could someone in plain english point me in the right direction regarding the seat belt height in relation to the seat base with regard to IVA before I make a mess of it.

Thanks.

Had a quick scan of the IVA manual - the way I read it is as follows:

1. You place a rectangular block which measures 136mm long (i.e. front to back in the car) and 53 mm tall (i.e. floor to ceiling) on the seat - where your backside would go. Nothing I can see about about how wide (side to side in the car) this would be - so presumably it doesn't make any difference if you have mega narrow / high sided seats.

2. You measure 450mm vertically up from the top, front, corner of this block (i.e. the point which would be nearest the steering wheel if you were in the drivers seat...

3. Your top harness mounts can't be any lower than this point. This assumes your seatbelts pass neatly through your seat back without touching it...

So it depends on the shape of your seats - where exactly this point actually is....


IVA manual is here, you want Section 31 - page 1 and 2 which does have a diagram: https://www.gov.uk/government/upload...ion_manual.pdf

Thanks for that. ;)

And thank you too Sir ;)
