[FC] Seat belt installation - where to drill?

[J R Read_HML]

I took a shot at convention of a Corvan with belts for the front seats.  I 
JUST got back.

Tell me where to send and I will do so once I download the pictures from the 
camera to the computer.

Later, JR

>>
>> Right: 3.00" to the rear (of the seat back bolt) and 2.62" inward.
>>
>> The most important fact: the measurements are from the rear of the seat

>>
>> Watch the gas tank line on the left side when drilling.
>>
>> I will send by separate file (it is big) a scanned copy of the Assembly 
>> Manual page.

>> Hope this helps.
