Re: standard bucket seats seatbelts
For what it's worth, the bench seat belt retractor (male) is the same, just the centre pieces would be different? I might still have the ones from my bench, they are black. I'll look tomorrow after work and let you . . .

This is correct regarding the bench/bucket outer belts...but, be aware that there were several styles/shapes of male buckles used on bench seats and each requires their own corresponding female inner receiver belts to work. They are not interchangeable. And, the correct inner belt for buckets was a single, taller belt that was encased in a plastic sleeve so it would stand upright alongside the seat. I've only seen one style used on G.P's and Chevys with buckets (Olds had a second style in '77)...IF, you're looking for the correct belts.
Here is a photo showing two common styles in bucket vs bench. The red swivel belt retractor shows the male buckle you'd need if you wanted the correct inner belt. The black retractor is typical of a bench belt limiting you to the improper (albeit, still functional) bench-style inner belts.

Re: standard bucket seats seatbelts
interesting
i think i rather stick with the proper style.
i really just need them for the seat mount honestly. it would just be a bonus and less of a hassle if they are complete.

Re: standard bucket seats seatbelts
Steve is absolutely correct, he's the one that got me my set of swivel bucket belts (the red one above) the right one is the bench / non-swivel bucket.
I've also looked and I can't seem to find the belts where I thought they were. Let me know if I should spend more time on the weekend and I will...

Re: standard bucket seats seatbelts
if you could that would be great. i am not too worried about making th car 100% correct
also if you just have a junk set that would work as well i just need the seat mount portion if worse comes to worse
