Seat belt for bucket seat mod?
Need help! Just got my bucket seat mod complete and then I discovered that the female end of the seat belt from the 60 section of the original seat will not work with the bucket. What a dumb a_ _.
Can any of you guys that have made this mod please help and tell me how you solved this problem. Did you just use a very solid L bracket attached to the floor at the rear of the seat and then attach the female end of the seat belt to the bracket or is a Ford part available? Part numbers of any needed parts sure would be helpful.

We just cut the 2nd. belt off and trimmed the plastic holder. It resembles a single seat belt. You should still have an elastic strap on the exterior of the new seat. Just run the plastic retainer inside the strap.
The belt is bolted down to the floor with the rear riser bracket. The same hole is used for both.
I hope that makes sense.
