What did you do for your top attachment point with their belts?

For the front belts, I used Part# WELR-L This mounts to the factory shoulder belt bolt location near the roof, but also drops the belt location to a more comfortable position to go over your shoulder. For the rear (I just did this a few days ago) I used part# welr, and I mounted the seat belts to the factory bolt locations, passed the strap through the factory rear shoulder belt openings in the rear deck(who knew they were a factory option?). I had planned to mount the retractor using the factory seat belt bolt locations also, but there wasn't quite enough room. A person could probably easily make some room with a few seat mods, but I chose to drill a hole and install the mounting plates about 5" above the factory bolt location. Looks and performs like a factory install. http://wescoperformance.stores.yahoo.net/resebe.html

I used seatbeltplanet.com I have a 70 GTX so I don't know about your shoulder mount point but mine went right in the mount holes that were stock. One thing to consider is the retractor. In my case I used different seats (corbeau) and the handle on the seat to lean it forward/aft was right at the same place as the retractor reel housing. For now, I had to swap the driver side with the passenger side (the seats) so the recline lever is on the console side. I don't like that set up but for now it will do until I get motivated to move the reel mount point back.....if I even can now without MAJOR issues. This never even crossed my mind while I had the car down to replacing metal.
