Presumably the large metric threaded insert was what Germany or maybe Sweden
used.  I've seen belts with that large thread on the fitting (usually a large
ring) but all the later ones have the 'odd'-sized 7/16" bolt, with a head that's
not quite 18 mm across (over here anyway).
Later ones here have the same 7/16" thread of course, but the head is now 17mm
for metric tools.  Are your seat belt bolts still somewhere around 16mm or have
they now 'standardised' internationally with metric head and imperial thread?
