if it is the typical aftermarket one wacky is right there are 2 vynil covered cardboard panels that cover the ft seatbelts they go on the sides. Also the treaded holes for the rear seatbelts are already there on the outside they are plugged with a rubber plug you will have drill 2 holes in the tunnel for the inners though

on my SA I found that the cross member under the front of the seat was no longer cover by carper so that will need to be adressed, you can see it in this pic of my car

I picked everything up, hope I'm not missing anythin. Got 2 full seat belts. 2 latches and some other black latch looking thing that he said goes on the strut tower I think. Pics will be up soon.

Unless you have a small ***, or you're a midget or less than 10 yr old kid, I dont see the purpose of having a rear seat on a SA/FB. Unlike a FC, there is no leg and head room, not to mention you're sitting on top of the rear axles; functionality over appearance. and yes, I previously owned a FC with a rear seat.

The latches
Hello, I’m pretty new on here, but i couldn’t see anywhere in this thread a source or website for getting a hold of some rear seat brackets/latches. Would you be able to point me in the right direction, I can’t seem to find them anywhere for love nor money.

Yeah i know which is a shame, but i love the look inside the car, feel like it keeps the classic style/look of the car. I use the footwells for fluids and spares at the minute anyway!
