I'm going from my fuzzy memory here;
I bought my car with the doors already changed over from a Sprint. The seat belts were not safe as it came. There were no lap belts, just a diagonal piece of belt that was tied to the inner door frame with the buckle piece at the other end.
I went to the junkyard and found a car with the belts and reels I needed. Seems like it was a geo metro 4 door sedan, but I can't remember. Anyway, my metro already had the mounting holes in the door pillars, so I just bolted the stuff from the junkyard in place. Seems like the upper mount needed a nut on the backside for the bolt that holds the belt support near your shoulder. I believe the reel mounts already had the nuts welded in place.
Hope this helps
