Re: Seat belts
Can't help you with an original seat I'm afraid, mine went in the skip years ago when I replaced them with Rover Metro ones. These fit well as they have a flat base held with 4 bolts just like the Daihatsu ones, and the sliding mechanism is fully contained in the seat rather than the car's shell. You would need to drill new holes to bolt them in, and reinforce them from underneath with a bit of plate or something similar.
When you say seat belt holster, do you mean the bit the buckle plugs into? I probably have two of these in the garage you can have for the price of the postage. Let me know if you are interested.

Best place for the old Daihatsu seats is in the skip.I bought my Metro/Rover 100 ones from Minisalvage www.minisparesandsalvage.com email eval(unescape('%64%6f%63%75%6d%65%6e%74%2e%77%72%69%74%65%28%27%3c%61%20%68%72%65%66%3d%22%6d%61%69%6c%74%6f%3a%70%61%75%6c%73%6d%69%6e%69%62%69%74%73%40%68%6f%74%6d%61%69%6c%2e%63%6f%2e%75%6b%22%3e%70%61%75%6c%73%6d%69%6e%69%62%69%74%73%40%68%6f%74%6d%61%69%6c%2e%63%6f%2e%75%6b%3c%2f%61%3e%27%29%3b')) Mine were £10.00p each collected although you could have them posted they came complete with subframes fit great & look the biz plus you can keep your own seatbelts regards Stan
