Carpet question, is 70 molded for seat belt retractor?
« on: November 19, 2009 - 06:51:26 PM »
I'm getting ready to order carpet.  But I seem to remember 70 having under the carpet retractors for the front seat belts?
Mine has aftermarket seat belts on the outside of the carpet.

So, should I order carpet for a 71 model?

All of the 70 carpets I have seen are definatly molded for the hidden boxes that cover the seat belt retracter

So the consenus is I should order carpet for a 71?  Any differences in the front carpet that might make this a bad idea?


Thx

No reason the 71 carpet will not work that I can think of
