I care about this stuff now....watch out...

The backpad on an early car.
Fixed seat belts.

Of course I have built my car from the remains of several other cars...RIP.

Is there supposed to be the little bump out for the seat belt retractor in the early backpads?

I always hate looking at that hole when I get it...it serves no purpose,,,I have the original fixed seatbelts.

No retractor, no bump.

And that is an issue Haudiosolutions is going to have to deal with. The back pad does not have the section cut for the belt to pass through. Looks like 3pt non-retractable belts is going to be the solution.

Early 72 have a special backpad then?
Moveable passenger seat, yet fixed seat belts.

IIRC, they did get the bump without the later belts. Not that many of them, though.

This might be a question for Pat....
