Does anyone know of a source for the seatbelt anchor reinforcing plates for a BJ8? My new floorboards did not come with them and now I have to try and locate a couple of them.

These are the plates that are between the seat tracks and out sills of both doors. The have a large "eyebolt" that screws into them and the seatbelt attaches to the eyebolt.
Thanks!
 
From memory, my belts came with giant, thick, round washers that you probably could get at any hardware store. I don't think they come with the floorboards but with the belts as the cars were not originally equipped with seat belts.

The enlongated D shaped laminated plate that welded into the floor pressing is available from Kilmartin.
Rich, Have you tried to fit the Kilmartin pieces? I had a friend send them back to a vendor because they didn't fit. He ended cutting off his old ones and spot-weldeding them to his new floorboards.

The BJ8 attachment is different than the BT7-BN7's, Plate "RLA" in the parts manual.
