Can anyone recommend a company that could fit 3 point or 4 point seat belts in to the rear of my 944 Cabriolet. I have two young children and want to use the car more with them.

Many thanks

There is a company, cannot recall their name at the minute, that will sort out belts for nearly any car, I asked this question about the 968 Cab last September.
My problem was that when I tried to fit a child into the back of a 968 the rear seats were actually next to useless.
Try a search on the Porsche Forum around that time

You'll be thinking of quickfitbs, google them and they have a gallery of work on similar cars.

They supplied three point rear belts for my 1990 Mercedes SL, and they're a great product.

I have an early 944, and everything I've read says that you can not put a 3 point in, I bought 2 point, but as I do not use the car these are still on my shelf. I'd advise you do a lot of research before you fit 3 point as you may just be getting a false sense of security.

My 968 has 3 point, has the 944 shell not got the same pick up points ?

Unfortunately cabriolets don't have the same points as the coupe.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Yes there appears to be different pick up on the 944 through the years, and when I looked, it was not an easy fix to fit a 3 point, which is why I say you may get some one to mount a three point but the mounts may be insufficient giving false security,

cant believe there isn't sufficient strength in that shell to fit a belt along with appropriate reinforcement. I can have bespoke seat belts made locally, colour matched to order if necessary.
