Strong Seat Frames For Saftey Belts?

DANNER · 04-28-2002, 12:39 AM

I just noticed something in this article: "Because of the lack of a pillar, the seat-belts have been located in the incredibly strong seat-frames".

Hmmm...icredibly strong seat frames. Do you think this means the front seat won't be adjustable because they need to be so sturdy? Or perhaps the adjustments will be really limited?

I cannot imagine that the front seats are not adjustable.

In fact I'm hoping that the front seats will have a quick release which allows the front seats to slide forward/down to make entry easier to the rear. This feature is available on my 1993 Mazda MX-3 (passenger side only).

I can't imagine the seats won't be adjustable. Lots of 4-seat convertibles have had the seatbelt anchors in the seats, without losing any adjustability.

Just about every new pickup truck has it too.

well, there are 4 doors, why would you want to enter back through "wrong" door? neverthess, I doubt you will have that, and that there is reason for it
