Seatbelts


We have replaced the 3 point harnesses for the front seats of our '71 SQB with
just generic replacment units.  They bolt into the existing holes (each side of
the central tunnel hump, 3/4 way up the pillar behind the door and on the side
near the base of the rear seat.)  The new retractor housing sits in latter
location and has to sit tilted towards the front a bit, but otherwise they work
great.

We also replaced the regular lap belts in the rear with the same type of 3
point harness.  I had to weld a nut just above the rear fender well, beneath
the window to mount the retractor units.  The upper nut on the 'C' pillar was
already there so it was a fairly easy modification.
