Hi Lance Think I can help you. Have a look at the seat belt in the rear seat of a commodore wagon around 2000 to 2009 ish. The seat lays back at about the same angle as the DRB mounts, I fitted these to my DRB then just had to buy some longer stalks for them to click into. Hope this helps...

Larry Peter Crosgrove has retired from the military but his quick wit has not hurt him. He is now the Governor General of Australia (the Queens representative) He does not suffer fools well, I have watched several reporters ask him stupid questions only to be put very quickly in their place...

I was at Phillip Island last weekend as well and the sound of the F5000s as they got the green flag was just fantastic whether you were at the fence on the outside of the circiut or on the roof of the pit complex. Shame the noise is going out of motorsport. Darrell DRB#46
