Unless the R&R bed is designed to have them mounted on it - I think there is one, in which case they will already exist - I wouldn't have thought it would be a good idea, unless your certain about the strength and positioning of the two points.

On mine the nearside rear original seatbelt mounting points is used, and its central point is welded to the frame of the R&R bed and this is also bolted to the floor at the same location. For the offside, there is an additional 1" square steel tube support bolted between roof and floor behind the wardrobe, the belt fixing points are bolted to this thru the woodwork, same central mounting point as the nearside one.

Many thanks I did wonder about the original ones,there are two plates welded in right angles on the outer base of the bed with holes in,could these be for attaching the buckle part of the belt?also ther is an additional 2x1box section above the plate that is securing the r&r to the floor this also has holes in that could be used to hold the other seat belt retracting unit.

My seat belt points are on the diagonal at each side of the seat. Hope that helps.
