1966 S3 Elan seatbelts

I want to remove the existing seatbelts. Can someone help?
How do I remove the fixation on the drive shaft tunnel? Do I unscrew the bolt from the inside of the car or do I have to access a nut (our whatever) on the chassis from beneath the car?
Thanks for helping.
 
The nuts for the belts are welded to the chassis, both floor and rear bulkhead, so you can only undo them from inside the car. Be very careful undoing the outside floor belt bolts. The nuts are glassed into the body and are hard to fix if you strip them or break them free. Lot's of penetrate.. it's a pain when the bolts break.... ( voice of experience here )
