a 1991 mini should have two 3 point belts in the back and there should be captive nuts for these mounts under the back seat (at the back of the base and the bottom of the back rest)



Ill investigate but I now have new holes that go through the rear arches

Did you ask for holes to be drilled?
Whack some paint and underseal on it.

I didn't ask for any holes to be drilled but if that's what needed doing I'm fine with that. Just as long as it doesn't all rust up now

Billy is 1978 vintage and once was heading for a fail at MOT as the rear seat belts were worn....examiner simply took them out and placed them in a box in the boot....pass!
