73-82 guys with FACTORY bucket seat TRUCKS...need your help! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Trying to wrap up the GM factory bucket seat install in my truck, which was originally a bench seat truck...and I need a little help.

I need to know where GM bolted the inner seat belts. On the drivers side, there is a spot directly behind the rear inner track mount where I assume it goes, but on the passenger side, the rear inner seat bracket takes up the same respective position.
SO, if you own a 73-82 TRUCK with FACTORY buckets, can you chime in and let me know, better yet, post a pic or two if you can?

Thanks fellas, pics to come following the install.

C'mon bucket seat owners, I know there are a few of you on here.

Now both Mark and I need help...lol

I just went and looked for you Jeff.
The drivers side attaches using a bolt hole just behind the seat tracks. The passenger side attaches to the same bolt that the seat track uses . I took thes pics but they may be hard to see.First two are passenger side and last is driver side.
