    Roger has offered (maybe he was drunk) to weld them in.
    Nope, was sober and in my right mind at the time. May not be right now, but I'm sure I was then.

    What? Can you speak up? I can't hear you. Oh... No... thank you though, I don't do that stuff anymore. No, really, I'm clean, and have been for almost 30 years.

    Pictures of the anchors ready to weld in the B and C pillars -

    I know there are many armchair engineers that will start the flame mail about strength of these pillars, shear force... blah and more blah. I've been looking, thinking, researching and planning around this for two years now. I've looked at all the aftermarket installation sites, inspected new cars in junk yards and talked to a bunch of smart people. I feel this is the right choice for me in my casual driver.

    That said, do your own research and decide what you are comfortable with before installing anchor points in your B and C pillars.

    Those should be a breeze to weld up Jeff. Nothing much needed there to prep. probably have you hold a wet towel outside to minimize heat transfer.

    Are you going to leave the bottoms as-is, or do you want to weld those in too?

    I seriously doubt once these are welded in there, those pillars will hold you in just fine Jeff.

    The bottoms are inside the rocker panels and held in place with tapped holes and screws. No welding required.
