for the seatbelts i need the bolt that bolts the bottom of the belt to the chassis of the car, what size bolt is that? 6x16? item #15 on the list. i also need the buckle part for the rear seats only, what would that be?

the seats though... i don't even know where to begin lol. i have the top and bottom halfs, but no bolts or anything so i don't know what i need to install or how to install. my car also has this fat *** thing that sticks out in the middle behind the fuel pump cover so the seats don't sit together right, someone help meee lol.

thanks for the offer but i already have the seats i just need the hardware to bolt them in.

i fixed the seatbelt problem by taking the bolts from the center buckle and belt and using them for the belts, i just need the buckles for the left and right rear passenger seats and the two bolts/washers i guess then. but i still don't know what is needed to install the rear seats lol

IIRC, you slide the rear seat backs into the the center pivot and, while pushing the seat back toward the center pivot, slide the other side of the seat back into the side of the car (there should be a hole the the rod projecting from the seat back fits into there). There is a plastic C clamp the clips to the rods on the outsides of the seat backs that keep the seat back from moving left/right. You're probably missing these C-clips. I can dig around in my garage...I think I may have a set of these somewhere.

The front of the seat bottom hooks into the area where the carpet ends. The back of the seat bottom gets tucked under the seat backs. There is a little loop that's off-centered towards the right (passenger) side that his held in with a bolt ... forget what size...10 or a 12 I think.

Seat belts can be found at a salvage yard, but make sure that they work before you pull them. I made the mistake of not checking this beforehand and ended up having to buy another seat of rears. You can also get these on eBay pretty easily.

the bolt that bolts the belts to the chassis? i used a 19mm socket i believe, or maybe it was 18mm, too lazy to get up and check, but it's the same bolt that is used to bolt the buckles and belts down to the chassis. i'm 99% sure it's the 6x16 bolt on the website up there.
