Should be a threaded hole on the passenger side and a bracket on the drivers side, both threaded  for a 1/2 bolt on either side for the lap belts...I think, not looking at the car

Jim,  

Both bolts are 3/8"-16 bolts.  Use grade 5 bolts(with three I marks on head), flat washers, and nylock nuts.   If you used a 1/2" bolt on the passenger  side lap mount hole, it would be so big that it would weaken the tubing.  ;)
