I have seat belt mounts that have stripped threads. I'm wonding if HeliCoil's are strong enough in case of an accident. Logic tells me, yes they would be fine if installed correctly, but my gut is a little more nervous than my head. Can anyone tip the scales one way or the other for me?

this is probably the best option if u cant get to the other side of the panel in question (i havent had to look yet) if you can you could replace the nut (weld nut to 3inx1in 10mm thick plate if doubtful this seems to be a manufacturing standard) then away you go or just use a bigger bolt i know i certainly wouldnt use a helicoil |
