Seat belt question I hate to ask
Did tons of searching with no diffinitive answer. My 96 has no rear seat belts and was wondering if 97+ rears fit the 96. My guess is yes, but not sure and don't want to pull a pair from jy if they dont.

The bolts that hold them in are #50 torx ....they will not come out easy. You will need a 1/2 drive socket with some 1/2 to 3/8 adapters and a handful of bits. Are the bolts still in yours or are there holes where they were. Surprisingly the threadcount on those are 7/16 fine thread...so if needed you can use full thread regular bolthead bolts about 1-1 1/2 long.. Bring some penetrant oil

You are using stock bolts so good, but for those who don't, use a high grade bolt. In a wreck a grade 5 bolt would just be there for decoration.
Also, I would recommend that you don't get any penetrating oil on the belt webbing.
