If you have a workshop manual its covered in section R34/35.

If you need a manual you can get a pdf version from the internet.

Hope this helps

Having spent some time hunting without success can anyone point me to a supplier
of a pair of front seat belts for my '69 convertible?

I fitted Securon seat belts to my 61 4 door a couple of years ago, here is the application list I selected the belts from.

I ordered them from my local auto parts shop to save on postage but I am sure the usual suppliers will have them in stock.

Hi again, at last I have time to fit the seat belts. I found one mounting point on each rear frame, with the perfectly
threaded hole for my fittings. Since my floor has been very well fitted out with stuck on underlay I'm having trouble
locating the other two (per seat) securing points. Any advice would be much appreciated. Best regards to all.

As indicated in the manual section R35, you should have triangular plate fitted under the rear side windows for the top fixing. On my traveller, I had to drill holes in the tunnel for the belt buckle and used the Seat Belt Mounting Plate (Captive Nut) [ACC106B] from ESM. You need to sit in the seat and work out were to drill the holes, as its dependant on the buckle length. Just make sure you miss the handbrake cables when drilling.

Guys,

Am I missing something here? Do I have the right manual? This is my screen with the suggested articles.

I'm looking for details on seatbelt points.

I think you are getting confused with Sections and Fig.

Reference is Section R34 from
Morris Minor Series MM, Series II, and 1000
Workshop Manual
Publication Part No AKD530 (14th Edition)
Dated 1970

The Figures in this Section R34 start at Fig. R52, your figure above Fig. R34 is in Section R24
