Convertible Shoulder Belt

Hey guys, I just need a quick picture of the shoulder belt location. I have an 86 Vert that seems to never had them installed... ???....

Preferably a picture that doesn't have the shroud around it so i can right where it mounts to the frame. Thanks guys.

You can see the pass. shoulder belt in this shot....... I can't figure out how to attach a file that is already in my CP. Anybody tell me how to do this.

Anyway I got a msg saying the picture (ASCBrace2.jpg) is in my post 'Aborted spohn SFC install'. You can look at it there.

(Sorry guys for mentioning that old post. I know you are probably sick of seeing it as I am.)

The picture is for the front pass. seat belt on my '92. Sounds like you want the REAR.

I give up.

I have an 88 and it's the same as that. The belt comes out of the top of the side panel where the tonneau is, but it's mounted at the bottom like in the pic.
