Last week. Install was a piece of cake. Even got to find out that the PO only installed the front 4 bolts in the seat Needless to say, that is fixed now.

Re: Aftermarket Seat Belts

How do these belts do when going over bumps in road? The lap belt portion on my 77 stock belts want to tighten up a notch everytime you hit a big bump and before you know it they are choking you off, the shoulder portion works fine and only tightens on impact then releases. Do these remain slack?

Everything bolts up in the stock location. I'd imagine 73-87 all had the same floor board and bolt holes so yea. Oh and those latches just slide into some rigid plastic peices otherwise they would just be "limp"? lol

Re: Aftermarket Seat Belts

They look great Dave, looks like to me weel worth the time and effort and money. I think I will be going this route to in the spring when I do my interior, thanks for the heads up on the belts.
