Seems there's a suptle request for measurements of the location of the original holes and hole size.

This would be good.

Well, I thought I'd be the online hero and post a pic of my 66's shoulder harness mounting point with measurements, etc.... so I got off my lazy butt, went to the garage, WITH a camera - and discovered I have no mounting holes at all. Nice smooth, factory painted inner cab wall on both sides. Bummer. And this throws a kink in the discussion about all 66's being fitted with at least the mounting hole - appears not the case (and I'm bummed! I was considering installing shoulder harness - now I'll have to get creative - and someone else will have to be the online guru and post the measurements....)

your wish is my command, will this do?

Measured to the CENTER of the hole (5/8" diameter hole), there is some angular distortion in the picture, the top and bottom pieces of tape are, in fact, parallel (that is, the bottom piece of tape is 5 1/2 below the top piece front and rear, just doesn't look it for some reason)

Absolutely, thanks fsl! I'm about to install belts in my '63 and your detail is much appreciated.
