My apologies if I missed this information. When I bought my Bugeye, seat
belts were a dealer option. At that time seat belts didn't come with metal
to metal latches. There was one latch and you threaded the other potion
through it, then tightened the strap and secured it by pressing down on the
latch.
My BT7, cane with two point belt and had metal to metal latches.
You can buy the seat belt hardware from British Car Specialist. I have no
special interest other than being a happy customer. I also appreciate David
following the list and sharing his expertise as did he father before him.
Some shops will not install them unless they to do a restoration. The first
shop I asked refused and also refused to explain why. The second shop said
they would do it if I agreed not to leave a paper trail. He explained that
he had no way of knowing if the sheet metal had deteriorated and belts
should not be installed until the metal was verified. It was a matter of
liability.
I never got further than that and still have the parts.
