Rear seat belt.

[further]

After installing the Watson Roll Bar, I am planning on removing the rear seat belt hardware and belt mechanism. Does anyone know if there are any electrical issues or sensors I should be concerned about?

No sensors, they just unbolt.

Thanks. T50 Torx wrench, right. I can't get it down to the bolt too well because of the plastic sidewall panels. I am planning on cutting the wrench piece down to a nub, with a hacksaw, then placing it in the bolt. Crazy?

Be careful, you can't remove the mechanism without removing the plastic panel. At least I couldn't.

I just removed the bottom screw and then zip tie the belt inside the frame near the top of the mechanism so it's not visible

Thanks for the warning. It's gotta come out though.

It might help you to go to the website directions for the Ford Rear Seat Delete Kit. I just installed one using those directions. They spell it all out pretty clearly and there were lots of steps. Good Luck.

The Watson bar comes with nice detailed instructions, the instruction link was also posted on the Watson group buy thread if you want to check them out. The hardest part of the install is not breaking the plastic door sill molded fasteners with their blue fasteners.

Great choice on the Watson.... The bar fits perfectly and is very well made and finished.

Good idea, I'll check it out.

The instructions also came with the kit. I don't believe the rear seat belt hardware was in those instructions. It is a nice kit and nice fit. The powder-coated silver is catchy as well. I haven't broken anything yet, like a window, etc. I'm putting most of the paneling and seat bottom back this weekend.

You can see, the rear seat belts (and hardware) are still in place. Their kit does not address my question. My roll bar is in and the back is competely devoid of paneling. I just need to remove the seat belts.
