Bench seat and kids car seats

I want to take my son cruising but I can't figure out how to put his car seat in my truck. My truck has lap belts only. It would have to go on the passenger side b/c my truck has a floor shift 4 speed and the shifter hits when the seat is in the middle.

The problem with putting it on the passenger side is the release would be inside/behind the seat and I won't be able to release the seat belt or making adjustments. I think I need a belt extension piece or something like that. Anyone have this problem before.

Why not bite the bullet and put in shoulder belts?

B/c I didn't think of that. Lol. That's probably what I'll have to do.
