Hello listers,

It's time for me to make plans for getting seatbelts for my TR3. The car had
none when I got it. So (of course) I've got a couple of questions.

1) Lap belts or shoulder harnesses. The car does NOT have a roll bar, and
none is planned. So what are the choices between the two? If I go with
shoulder harness, any advice on the best mounting point for the shoulder
part? Any specific recommendations as to vendors, etc.. also happily
received.

2) Currently there is no interior whatsoever in my car. Is it best to drill
the holes for mounting the belts before or after putting in the carpeting?
If after, what is the trick to getting decent holds through the carpeting
without having strands unravel (like the time I tried using my drill on the
ones in my Spitfire --- not very pretty site).

Thanks again for your help!
