seatbelt ??

I have a w250 regular cab that is does not have a center seat belt. Is that normal or did someone remove it?

It might have had buckets originally and someone put a bench in?

As far as I know it's the factory bench seat.

My formerly owned 93 w250 with a bench had the center seat belt... which I tossed out when I put buckets in it...


I guess that would mean someone removed yours.

If you can't find a hole where the bolts were look underneath to see if the nut and plate are there

The center belts are bolted on with the same bolts/holes as the driver and passenger side belts.

the hole is there for both sides but the seatbelts themselves just seem wrong. are bench and buckets the same seatbelt?

That's exactly how my 93 was.

Bucket seatbelts have a stiff plastic sleeve to hold them alongside the seat. They also have a steel strap visible through the bolt hole. Bench seatbelts have a smaller plastic sleeve only where they pass through the seat. Bucket seatbelts are more or less straight, where the bench seat ones twist about 90* at seat level.
