Even better would be if someone could post a picture of the shoulder belt bolted into the "B" pillar with the plastic cover removed. I just want to make sure I am not missing anything.

I think I ran into the same issue as you using the LMC three point belts. The hardware they send with the retainer was much smaller than my factory bolt. I used the factory bolt, but there was about a 1/4" gap between the belt "triangle" the head of the bolt and my interior trim. I ended up using a rubber grommet just to keep it from rattling.

1/2-13 x 1.30 with shoulder is the correct size for my 77, by the way - for any future Googlers. Second picture posted above, bottom left corner
