This is a resend of a message Scott sent to a
wrong address:

lol To wit:
> "Standard No. 210 - Seat Belt Assembly
Anchorages - Passenger Cars
> (Effective 1-1-68 ),
Multipurpose Passenger Vehicles, Trucks, and
> Buses
(Effective 7-1-71)
> This standard establishes
requirements for seat belt assembly

proper location for effective occupant restraint
> and to
reduce the likelihood of failure. The requirements apply to
any

involved in transferring

structure." OK, does that mean that if
> I drill holes
just about anywhere through the floor, it will be safe?
