can anyone tell me what color blue the seat belts were on the 69 decor dark blue/light blue interior? Also would it have had the 3 point shoulder or the lap belt. It was a December 68 production car. There is a threaded hole in the roof just above the post so I'm thinking it was originally shoulder. When I bought the car it had been redone in white upholstery but had very dark blue lap seat belts. Much darker than the 2 tone blue decor interior that came originally.

Coat hanger was above the post on my car or that is what it looked like. Their is a bracket that bolts to the truss near A pillar and the visor hinge. I might be wrong but think that is rite. One of the other guy's will correct me if I am wrong.

Yea they make a kit for track has to have three point belt. I don't know if you can find the holes near the wind shield trim and visor. I think if you type in the search box you might find a picture or two. I think they came with just the lap belt in 69. Look into classic they have seat belt's in color. You said the interior was light blue. I would think the belt would match it or close. But never know might have had just black or a dark blue. Give this awhile and see who else has an idea's.

Shoulder harnesses became mandatory on January 1, 1968. Your '69 RR came with lap belts and a separate shoulder belt that stores up above the windows.

White shift handle and blue carpet? Hmmmmmm
That car was featured in Hot Rod Magazine back in 2015. Satellite turned into a modernized A12 Clone. He built it the way he wanted it. I was just looking for something that showed the shoulder belt clearly and that pic came up.

For sure on the coat hangar hook on either side for ‘69. Also for the seat belts themselves had brackets at the seat bottom fascia to latch the buckles when not in use.
