The passenger bracket worked perfectly, placing the buckle between the console and the bucket, where the seat back and bottom meet.

The driver's bracket,and remember these are universal brackets, needed to be lengthened 2" on the bed end and have its 15 degree angle reversed. Now it's in a similar position and these belts look and work as well as those in a new vehicle.
Any pictures ?
