Robert,
   I don't have any pictures, as the belts are currently not installed so I
can keep them clean until I'm ready to fly.  I never had all of them in at
the same time, so I didn't take any picts during installation.  I can tell
you that I moved all of the front seat belt anchors back a few inches so
that the anchors wouldn't be ahead of the seat.  I made new hard points for
the lap belts exactly like the ones for the back seats and put sic AN-4
bolts in a 1/4" phenolic block to anchor a bracket we made for the center
belts.  I then cored the floor behind the aft front seat support, floxed the
phenolic block in and put 10 BID of staggered sizes of BID over it.  I had
an engineer help me with the location, bracket and amount of BID to use, so
it should be rock solid.
   One other thing that I did was to build up flox around the bolt heads for
the side lap belt anchors in the wing roots and then cover them with 2 BID
so I can get the lock nuts inside the cabin on and off without having to get
a wrench on the bolt heads with the wings on (which would be impossible on
the rear ones in any event).
   As soon as I reinstall all of the belts in a few weeks, I'll post some
photos.
