Thanks.

The're supposed to be from a 2004 Blazer. At least that's the way they were advertised. I took the 60/40's for another truck and sold these to a friend for a hundred bucks.
But he didn't finish the build they were going into (a '68). When I got RAT, I asked him what he was going to do with the seats. Two days after I asked, he brought them over....
...wouldn't take the $100. But, he and I are waaaay past keeping score. Since we don't, we're always "even".

I only asked him for the c-note, originally, because we were all there when the guy that was delivering the seats had his hand out waiting for the green My pal asked,
"What's my share?"....He got these for about 1/5 of the total cost 'cause that's the way we roll. Sweet "turn around" that he gave them back to me four years later, huh?

The mechanicals for the belts are about seat-back high bolted securely to the posts. I used radio knobs on the manual winders, although they are properly set up and retract just right.
I just didn't have room on the belts (length) or on the floor. Looks okay. Pretty low profile. But understandably, it would absolutely make the "correct" guys cringe.
