OK, I think the headliner installer marked the holes for the 3 point shoulder belt, but need to make sure before I put a hole in the headliner.. Is it near the middle of the rear 1/4 window ? Thanks.. I'm installing the XV Motorsports belts...

Wow, way back there ! It seems too far back.. Thanks for the pic. Just need the anchor point. I guess if thats where it is, thats where it is. Thanks very much, Rick Gorski

yeah, that anchor point could became on a problem to aftermarket 3 points seatbels since stock are designed as a non retractable and separated shoulder belt. Thats up to 73 on all Mopars. ( and all American cars though )

74s are easier since they locate just right in the middle of both glasses, pretty much close at same height of floor retractor, since 74 shoulder belt is with a retractor hidden by lower quarter panel. This setup uses just one conector common to both belts

Yep that far back Rick. Just checked one of my 71's. About 8.5" back from the front edge of the quarter glass SS trim.

A little extra work but you may want to pull the trim off, peel back the headliner in the area and find the mount before you start punching holes.

That's exactly how I did mine. Although I could feel where they were, I wasn't going to poke a hole through my new headliner until I was sure. Mark the coat hangers while you are up there. Just drive a screw into them and through the headliner when you find them, add hooks whenever you get the chance.
