G'day Fingers,

The engineer I used for the EK wagon was very, very pedantic about seat belt location. I had to demonstrate to him that I met the NCOP guidance. NCOP is almost a carbon-copy of the ADRs, and is full of a lot of techo language. I took a heap of photos and measurements, and have written them up into a Seatbelt Guide, using plain english. The Guide is a little rough, but about 95% complete (one day I will get time to finish it). Shoot me an email address and I'll email you a copy.

Cheers,
Harv
