Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
Not done a lot to my caddy of late.
Until now.
So I thought it was about time I did a little update
Now I have some touran rear seats in.
As you can see the seats don’t match yet and there some painting to do and some trims which I’m still waiting to be delivered. But there in

Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
After fitting the rear seat last week.
This weekend I thought I better fit some seatbelts.
Had to make some back plates first
Then a lot of drilling and cutting to fit the plates
Then had fix the plates and the seatbelts

Nice work Sean. It’s going to look spot on when it’s finished. I’ve done a bit of vehicle welding in work, I struggled like mad due to how thin the metal is and my inexperience. So I don’t envy you there!

Thanks Peter.
I had a lot of help with the welding as a friend of mine did it for me I just did all the donkey work the cutting and grinding.

Re: My EX BG VR6 3.2 build
Change the seatbelts today wanted something different. So I bought new ones. But the front ones have tensioner on them so I had to remove the webbing from the new ones and fit them to the genuine ones which was not easy but was straight forward.
Vw one
There is a pin that you have to try and get out so you can pull the webbing though.
I shoved a bracket in the reel to stop it from spinning back.
Then I just put the new webbing in and did the reverse to put it back together
Then I fitted them back in the van I think they look ok

Sean, I just read all 89 pages of your thread.
Congratulations!!
Regarding the wiring harness, you had never done this before?
I have in mind a change of engine but the electrical connection really scares me..

Coloured seatbelts... I'd never even considered that, brilliant. Too late for santa so I guess I'll be buying them myself.

@Raph
The wiring harness I have never done before.
I just had to do a lot of looking and reading of wiring diagrams. Swapping the engine was the easy part.
