I'm getting the coach ready for summer, and one of my projects is to install passenger seat belts. Currently, my coach only has seat belts for the driver and passenger seats up front. Can someone let me know where else the '76 Eleganzas originally had seat belts installed, and what their lengths were? There doesn't seem to be much information in the manuals.

Thanks again!

chair. It does not have any in the dinette and it has a sticker saying not
to be occupied when vehicle is in motion. Info may help may not. Sammy

Not sure your layout, but on my 75 glenbrook, i have 3 belts on the couch.
the dinnete foward facing bench has 2 belts.

I bought from; http://www.andoauto.com/seat_belts.htm
I know they sell all types, i just had to outfit my belts in the
living area's.
as for cost, i don't remember .... i did the 5 belts, i don't
remember being shocked at the $$$

as for length..been so long... i will see if i can measure when i get home

My 1975 Avion has 4 additional belts, 2 on each side of the dinette. They appear to be OEM and a bolted to the floor. I have not looked to see if they are attached to a frame member. They also look like they have never been used. I use them to secure my traveling pet cages.

My 78 Palm beach also has three sets on the couch behind the driver's seat. They looked factory, and the wall panel looked factory where they passed through. They were bolted through seat level height holes in the vertical aluminum structure.

Ok pics are rough.

this is looking down behind the couch.. i pulled the wall away to snap the
pic, but you will see the bolt hole anchors there.

http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/member-galleries/p57523-20150317-161335.html

this is from the forward looking bench.
this is the center anchor it feeds both sides.

http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/member-galleries/p57521-seat-belts-at-dinette.html

this is the isle seat anchor, and middle.

this is from under the MH, i was in my suit so i did not crawl under, but
you'll get the jist. this would be the isle seat anchor..
http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/member-galleries/p57522-20150317-161223.html

i will look for my receipts, but i have moved since then.. and i dont like
to hold onto to many receipts.. the wife does not need any more ammo!
