Hi Michael, Back in the early days of this discussion page someone wrote on how to do seat belts without your car have frankenstien bolts protruding out the pillars. I had my FB done in this manner by the local mechanic and they turned out great. From memory get a small strip of steel (dont know dimensions or thickness)weld a nut to it that suits the seat belt bolt. Cut a slot on the inside of the pillar just big enough to insert the strip and bolt, it is an idea to tie something to the strip until it is inplace. Align it in place and weld in. Presto. That is my memory, I am sure someone could give you some more detail, dimensions and put it into a more readable version. Cheers Andy
