I was looking, as you do, for a nice seat belt receptacle solution on Recaro bucket seats. Through another research about a nice plug n play rollcage I land on this thread, look who is complaining about not wanting to remove the sunroof, just like me

While this thread is at the top, I should post an update photo of my half cage. Because goodness, my interior looked like junk when the car was under construction on page 6.

Did you ever find a seatbelt solution?

Yes! I took the FVD seatbelt "spacer" and mounted that. Now seatbelt receptacles are coming up between the seats and the center tunnel nicely.
I needed only that one because my Recaro mounts have the receptacle mount integrated, so I bought only the two holed rectangle metal extender, but it looks like you can't buy them separately anymore. Good thing: the price with the mount is the same as I paid for only the metal extender. I can't remember if the additionally needed bolt is included, I don't think so but check it.

I'm a little confused. Did the rectangle essentially just change where the receptacle mounts, making it higher?

no confusion, it's exactly that. It's just making the receptacle longer, which is also the only thing you need (I think).

Is there another source for just the rectangle extensions? Those are the only pieces I need as well and don't feel like spending $120.

I don't know , I think it is FVD fabrication but as I said, I paid the same price but for only the rectangles, so you might not find better price anyways.

Thanks. I was actually hoping to thread it through the belt hole. Over the side leaves a lot of slack so the belt isn't over my hips properly. I'm not sure yours solves that?

Not totally if you really want something close to stock, but I am not really thin so I don't think it makes too much difference. My plan is to add a proper bolt in rollcage and I will then probably go 4 point harnesses anyway.
