Title: Pointless center seatbelt...

Why is it there? Between the full length console, and the fact that the seat back looks like it's only designed for 2 people back there.

3 normal sized people can actually fit fairly comfortably in the back seat of a fox t-bird

There's no where for the middle person to put their legs

Technically, a full console that touches the rear seat would make the car a 4-passenger vehicle.
The shorter console from 1987-88 made it a 5-passenger vehicle.

However, full console cars could be found with the extra seat belts, depending on model year.
I don't think I have any in the '84.

Yeah, I knew that much. The first time I saw this 1983-86 center console, I thought it looked funny going all the way back the way it does, but I've gotten used to it, plus I like how the rear ashtray is the same as the front one. Weird how the cig lighter socket is lighted, but not the rear ashtray.
