The hardware included in this kit has been designed to work for multiple years of Mustangs. If your vehicle has existing anchor mounting points installed you may not need all of the provided hardware.

Note: This is an installation guide only, designed as an outline to assist you during the process of installing your new seat belts. Some installations may not be covered therefore it will be the installers responsibility to determine the safest mounting locations.

 1964-1973 Mustang Coupe & Convertible Step 1 Remove old seatbelts. Clean any debris and rust out of threaded holes with a wire brush or thread chaser. Step 2 Mark location in door jamb area for the shoulder belt stud plate. Note the location of the window crank and allow enough room for shoulder belt mount cover to clear the window crank handle. Step 3 Use a center punch once you have determined the location for the shoulder belt stud plate. Step 4 Begin drilling with a small diameter bit increasing the bit size until you reach the required diameter to allow the stud to be installed with minimal amount of sidewall clearance. Step 5 Insert the shoulder mount stud plate and mark the two small holes for the rivets. Remove the plate and drill the rivet holes. Afterwards insert the plate then install the supplied rivets to secure the plate to the door jamb. Step 6 Position the retractor below the shoulder belt mount and determine the best location that provides free operation of the retractor. Mark the carpet location for the mounting bracket hole. If your vehicle has a factory mounting location that will allow the retractor to be installed in this manner than it is recommended to use the factory mounting location. Step 7 After marking the carpet, use a hot knife or sharp razor blade to cut an “X” in the carpet where the bolt will install. This will allow you to score the floor pan so you can drill a small hole to help you identify where the hardware will be installed under the vehicle being careful to look for fuel lines, brake lines, electrical wiring and frame obstructions and access. After you have confirmed your location is safe to use, install the mounting hardware as shown in the photo. This method is used when mounting the 5” anchor in the factory lap belt mounting hole next to the seat. Step 8 Next you will need to install the mounting anchor by simply bolting it into the original lap belt mounting hole next to the front seat. The angle of the anchor is best adjusted with the seat installed and aiming toward the lower cushion with a slight angle towards where the backrest and seat meet. Step 9 For more room to enter the rear seat area you can mount the 5” anchor behind the retractor using the retractor bolt as shown in the photo to the right. The angle of the anchor should be slightly forward of the retractor going towards the front of the vehicle but can be adjusted closer to the floor if desired. Drivers Side view with anchor towards front of Vehicle. Passenger side will mirror this image but the anchor will be on the other side facing the front of the vehicle. Step 10 After bolting the retractor in place you can install the door post fitting over the stud completed in step 5. Step 11 Next you will need to install the Buckles. Use the factory mounting if available or the supplied 7/16” x 20 bolt in the hardware kit. Step 12 You are now finished with the installation. It is recommended that you double check the tightness of the bolts after the first 100 miles of use. 1968-1973 Mustang Coupe & Fastback This installation for the 1968-73 Coupe and Fastback Mustangs is very similar to the earlier years with the exception of not having to create the mounting point for the shoulder belt door post fitting since your vehicle should have this access point installed from the factory. Step 1 This is the mounting location for the Fastback and Coupe 1968-73 which replaces step 10. Use the supplied bolt in the hardware kit if a factory bolt is not available. Step 2 View of completed installation.
