55.2-59 seat belts in a 59

[Dan in Pasadena]

Sorry I hadn't come back to this thread in awhile.

I'm too late to tell most of you a lesson I learned too late on my installation:

We centered the shoulder belt hole in the pillar logically assuming that would be best - it is not. The hole should be closer to the edge of the pillar toward door opening so the belt hangar will be "level". Otherwise; like mine is, it hangs canted because the window is in the way. This makes the shoulder belt retractor hang up while trying to buckle it. Since I'm final painted I just have to live with it.

So, to you the come along later than me and the guys I gave bum advice to, hope this helps.
