In 2009 our 1976 Royale previous Owner updated the front seats to the popular captains chairs that I believe came out of a minivan that was all the rage at the time. When we purchased the Royale a few years ago, the first thing my wife and I commented on was the lack of a shoulder harness and the inadequacy of the lap belt. In light of the recent tradgedy that has befallen all of us, once again, I revert to the lack of a shoulder harness in my Royale. I believe the lap belt is actually original. Is there a modification available to either tie it into the sidewall or is there a seat that safely encompasses a shoulder harness. In my humble opinion, one cannot remain conscious in a hard frontal collision with only a lap belt. Is anything available? Ideas? comments?
