Great advice Dave. All my seatbelt fastening kits have come with the
huge washers/plates complying with NTSB fastening guidelines.

Regarding the seat belt mounting, it depends on what you're working with.
Some seat belts are designed to pivot around the shoulder of the bolt even when
the bolt is completely tight. In such a case, you should cut the hole in the
carpet to be big enough for the shoulder of the bolt. There is then no risk of
the bolt loosening due to carpet compression as the carpet is no longer a
factor. This is how most factory belt installations have been done for ages. If
you're using aftermarket belts (or perhaps a factory style that is old enough),
then Gary is spot on about not wanting things to come loose over time.
Another advisable thing when installing belts is to reinforce the mounting
locations with steel plate. Some kits come like this already where the "nut" is
actually a piece of steel plate. Others do not; you just get bolts and nuts, and
you have to make your own plates.
