I promised Doug (raynecat) the backing plates for the seat belt retractors from my $75 parts car, but the firewall is rust free. Someone may need it in the future.
So I'm looking for someone with a crappy old firewall in the scrap pile that's willing to remove the backing plates.

I have a couple of parts cars I can cut them out of. Are his rusted out or is he converting from early belts?

71 chassis. Wants retractable shoulder harnesses.
I looked at the 71 chassis that I have. The fire wall looks the same minus the the hole and the backing plate. Are they ?

No are not thee same shape. you have to cut out the whole recessed area with the backing to do a conversion. The early cars had an area more flat.

Thanks.
This is for my car Cary and Bdstone.
It's a 71 but I'd like to get the retractable seat belts installed.
The car will be going through a major overhaul with lots of body panels, etc. so I would think this is the time to do this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

And thanks Cary....your my Porsche bud for sure.
