I've not used the 3-point conversion kit.

When I bought my Westy,, first thing I did was to install new seat
belt replacements.   I have one boy, soon to be two, and would never
try to reuse belts from another vehicle (saving a buck or two or a
hundred vs peace of mind when dealing wirh them is not worth it). I
bought lap belts for their car-seats.

My $0.02
