I then made sure the internal spring in the reel was fully wound, and then inserted the belt end.

This pin retains the belt end in the spool center.

Better. Note that I removed the plastic sheath and wires for the belt interlock warning system.

Now to sort out the mounting hardware. I think I have the correct parts for the buckles.

But the correct pieces for the belt anchor are a mystery. Here are parts that came off the car, plus some others that I sourced.

And to add to the confusion, I dug through my old parts for the box of belt hardware, including eye-bolts from my racing days. In the bag I found 3 more 914 mounting bolts.

Progress on my custom ash tray interior light holder. For this first attempt, I epoxied the two pieces together.

I then went back to my custom LED fog light conversion, and how to complete the wiring.

I fed the stock leads into the housing, as was original.

But there is not enough room in the cavity at the base of the housing for both the original leads and the new wiring.

So I reverted to feeding the new leads out of the housing, with some additional cable housing.

I think I finished my new ash tray light, but it took a couple of tries.

Both pieces expoxied together. Not as cool as welding, but maybe next time.

After adding a groove for the retaining tab, the light fits--sort of.
