E90 seat install

spooni · 02-24-2022, 08:51 PM

Got my QRT-C and a PCI mount with sliders(wife needs to drive sometimes).

I'm dumbfounded on where the belt retractor is supposed to anchor to. Also, what slots do I utilize for the brackets/tracks on the mount?

Thanks in advance

Not sure that I'm referring to the same belt tensioner part... But if the E9x is the same as an E82, I used a 1/4" - 1"x4"x4" steel angle iron bracket to attach the seat belt end to the floor mount. (Not ideal for your weight saving goals)

There's also the BK one for $100 which seems kinda absurd for a very basic bracket with less strength than a similar 90* bracket from OSH

VAC mounting brackets might be useful too since E90 outboard reel connects to the seat instead of the bottom of B pillar like coupes. This means you need a brackets on both sides of the seat mount.

Ended up getting it figured out for the factory 3 points. The PCI comes with two ears(one each side). However I'm not sure where I'm going to clip my harness lap belts with this setup.

Didn't use the sliders after all.

If you use the bk harness mounts, I have the passenger set I'll sell for really cheap.
