Anchor location for 65 mustang coupe rear seatbelts
Turnings64:
I am new to this this evening. I know questions have been asked about the proper location of rear seatbelts for the 65 coupe, but cannot find the discussions. I have looked for but not found any indication of factory located anchor points and would appreciate any pictures, word and specific measurements for the location, or good direction to previous threads on this subject. Thanks much. I recently purchased a nice 65 coupe , and would like to get the belts in place.

Did the 65 even have rear seat belts? I also have a 65 without mounting holes for rear seat belts. I just thought 66 was the first year that rear belts were required hy law.

Welcome to the forum. Rear seatbelts were a dealer installed option only in 1965. They became standard in 1966. Use the search feature with quotes around "rear seatbelts". I got nine hits.

Craig, I believe you are correct that seat belts were not required for 65, but my grandchildren tell me they can not ride without seat belts.That I like.
Jim, The guidance was helpful and well appreciated.
Thanks to both Craig and Jim

A set of the anchor plates (shown in the factory kit installations) are on Ebay currently- just mentioning the fact. Don't have any connection to the seller
