Lap belts up front, nothing at all in the back?
Du behöver inte bälten i baksätet vilket som, SBP har inte krav på det förräns '71 (rear seat belts aren't required in pre-71 cars by Swedish Law).

Lap belts in front and back for 2 passengers each. Shoulder belts in front were mandatory after January 1st 1968 (about half way through the production year) so some early cars did not have them.

Aeren't there seat belts for the middle passenger in the back seat?  I have them in my '69.....

Now I'm fuzzy. I just did a bit of searching and it looks like shoulder belts and rear lap belts were required at the same time (Jan 1 1968). The wording is "shall be equipped with a lap-type safety belt assembly for each permanent passenger seating position". I don't know if the center of the rear seat is considered a permanent seating position. I didn't have middle belts in my 1973 Barracuda.

Stuart: the only thing specifically exempted were police vehicles.
