[DeTomaso] Seat Belts without retractors?

Hi Dave,
This is for the tame Pantera.  I suspect my wife would be happier with a 3 point belt.  If I ever actually finish it, the twin  turbo Pantera will deserve something more substantial.

  If you have the belt attachment bar across the firewall, just go for an
  adjustable 4-point.
  ( it may save facial reconstruction)
  Or go for a 5-point and have anti-submarining too.

  Just check that having your reach restricted isn't too much of a pain
  in the butt.
  I don't mind, unlocking the passenger door is about the only time I
  notice.

    Sometime in the past as part of metal restoration, rectangular tubing
    was welded into the rocker panels in my 73.  There is not room for
  the
    original seal belt extractors.  I have a pair of belts for a GT5S
  with
    retractors that are not inside the rocker panels, but not happy about
    the appearance.  Is there any downside to just using something like
    this?
