Question Bucket Conversion Help needed

Two questions after I started installing my cut down seat.

1. I assume I just need a longer bolt on the inside front passenger seat? The stock one will not work.

2. How the he!! do I get the passenger side seatbelt back in????? Do I need a new part? HELP!!

Ya I had to get a longer bolt

As for the seat belt, many have modified the stock belt. I went to the Ford dealer and ordered a seat belt from a F150 with stock captain chairs. I had to drill a hole in the inside bracket and the belt fits perfect.

I just cut out the plastic around the bottom of the seat belt and everything fit fine and you cannot see it. I only had to cut about 2 inches off and it does not affect the belt strength in anyway.

Like Don said, You will need a longer bolt.

Hope this helps.
