Default 75 Seat Question

How is the seat belts supposed to run. Does it go through the seat like in some models or does it just sit on the side? Thanks

I think your seats are like mine... On my '73 coupe the shoulder belts are fed through the seat back near the top - a slot is provided in the outward portion of a black and chrome metal trim piece at the top of the seat for cars that came with the optional shoulder belts. If your seats are for a car that didn't, that hole will not likely be in the seat - need a new trim piece if retrofitting for a stock look. The seat belts themselves are at the sides of the seat bottom - not through it at all.

You didn't say if you were talking about a coupe or convertible, but '75 coupes did not go through the seat. I'm sure the only '75's that went through the seats were '75 convertibles WITH Custom Shoulder Belts. The coupes had that "hangar" on the pillar rearward of the door glass that the belt went through.
