I know seatbelts were a dealer installed item in the early cars so I doubt it makes a difference, but should the female buckle strap be mounted next to the trans tunnel or on the outside.? I looked thru Google images and most of my books only to find that there was no consistency on mounting. My idea is to mount the female strap to the trans tunnel side to minimize any possible paint damage if the buckle contacted the paint on the outside of the car, or sill. Since I think I know how I want to do this it's a silly question, but any feedback is appreciated.
