What was the first year seat belts were available
as an option on Imperials? What year did they become standard?

Subject: Re: IML: Seat belts-1960
I have a '60 LeBaron with factory belts and using
those patterns I am about to drill the holes in my '60 Crown. The outside
belts were bolted to body mount bolts and I have measurements for the
inner. Of course the Lebaron had only two pair on the front seat so the
back is a guess. They say Chrysler and I am sure they are original to the
car. I'll try to get you the info./pictures out this weekend.

didn't come with seat belts. I bought a set from Bob H.....but how do you
install them?
I haven't found a picture or installation discussion in any of the
publications. They obviously need to bolt through the floorpan, and it seems
the nut should go on the bottom side. Assuming there is a nut as I only
received the bolts. My big problem is locating where to bolt them down. Could
someone with a similar year Imperial share a couple pictures of where their
seat belts are bolted down? Under the back seat would be great too. Email me
off list.
Does anyone know if there is a knock-out in the floor pan for the bolts or do I
need to drill holes?
Thanks,
