[T3] Seat belts

[Dave Hall]

I used to get several years more use from a battery that had became an
unreliable starter in a watercooled VW when I put it in a Type 3 - low
compression ratio in our VWs compared with the (around) 10:1 in the more
modern stuff.

I installed the retractable belts from a Mk2 Golf in our 1971 Squareback.
As I recall it was fairly simple, but I think the center receivers ended up
a little higher than expected.  I also mounted a set for the rear seat, but
that required welding in a nut on the C pillar.
