I think Juliet wrote a detailed description, but I can't find it now. Also, this may be the site with pics that you were looking for:

Lemme know if that worked?

Mine were from a 93 camaro. I think 93 to 96 rear belts are the ones you need

I thought it wasn't an option on a '69. For the shoulder belts I mean.

I think it was optional in the convertibles and standard in the coupes but i may be wrong. My car doesn't have them.

Actually, i meant, I thought the later model camaro seat/shoulder belts didn't work well in the '69

This is correct. In '69, the retractors are mounted vertically above the wheel well. I believe it was in '70 when they mounted them horizontally on top of the wheel well. I believe there was someone here who fabbed up a bracket to make them work, though.
