69 interior pics needed

I am trying to finish up the restoration and parts buying for my 69 frame off vette project.

I need pics of the quarter panel trim and seat belt retractor area.

I bought some panels from ZIP and want to make sure they are correct

There is no provision for the shoulder belts and I was wondering what a original car looked like with all the interior intact.

also which side does the shoulder belt (chrome) clip mount to on the seats?

Seems like it would be opposite of modern cars? If the retractor mounts on the side of the wheel well?

Any help and pics would be great

Here is a pic of the shoulder belt retainer for the seat back.

The quarter trim is from a 70- up vert. Not a 69. I am using the Camaro belts and they mount on the top of the fender not on the side as the 69 shoulder harness does. The 69 trim is thinner at the bottom and flares out at the top to cover the top frame. The shoulder harness will come from the back low on the inside of the quarter trim and up to the seat back mounted retainer. Hope this is clearer than mud.

OK , so the 69 should not have a hole in it?

Or do I have to cut one in?

No the 69 should not have a hole in it. If your trim looks like mine, they sent you the wrong ones.

69 don't look like that, unless those pics are a conv?!?!?!?! I had a coupe and the shoulder belts mounted on the wheel humps in their own little assembly with a vinyl cover. Chrome guides are on outer edge of seat. "Fonz69" never says coupe or conv. in his post, unless it is common knowledge what he has.........................B

It does not say in the post, but if you look at his profile his car is a vert. Vert or coupe the shoulder harness assembly will be mounted on the inside of the wheel wells and should come over the seat thru the bracket. The coupe will not have the trim extending behind the seat as the vert does.

And yes mine is a vert too.
