Those would probably be to hook the seat belt onto. I may be wrong but I think they are supposed to be stainless. A lot of cars are missing those.

That's what they are... Seatbelt retainers

Re: 71 seat question (Ed T)
For sure about the sheetmetal part. The plate is about 2" x 3". Both seat have it, and it looks factory. I've thought about the seat belt suggestion because 71 don't have retractors. They just lay around on the seats or floor. If that't the best I come up with I don't think I'll put them back on when I finish with the new covers.

They are stainless, but stamped out in a punch press die. Sure, I would be interested in getting rid of them, make a fair offer and we'll go from there.
