Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Sep 2013 Posts: 61 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Sep 2013 Posts: 61 | I'd like to install belts in the 1953 9300 GMC that I'm working on and wondered of anyone here has attempted that. My main concern is where to mount the top point of the belts.

It worked fine. I would suppose the top point (meaning the shoulder harness) would matter where the seat is mounted and how the person is sitting in the seat. I mounted the seat first and then put the seatbelts in place around the seat.
