    Like I said, small and low quality. I just don't trust the FRP to not break or have the threads get ripped out in an accident that would put excessive stress on the mounting points of the seat belt and it's receiver.

    I got as far as making a template to make my own brackets before making the realization it probably wasn't the safest option.


    Check your transmission tunnel, there should still be threaded holes for the OEM seat belt receivers, you just need to use the older NA6 receivers like i did on my 96 Miata

    There is a hole where NA6 receivers would be bolted in an NA6 car, but in my '97, they're just holes with rubber plugs, no threads. Had to use the stock receiver anchor points. Which are further back on the trans tunnel than the NA6 anchor points.

    This pic shows their location with the NA6 receivers installed.
