I suspect those side panels are the late ones for 72-3s which have 
latches for the rear seat back. Those panels have (round?) cutouts 
for the latches to stick thru. You might be able to anchor the 
retractors there, but the retractors themselves would have to live 
somewhat higher up, where they could be out of the way of the 
seat back. I'm afraid this would put them up in the area of the C 
pillar--a little too much in view for my taste.
