I have a 69 Dart Convertible and wanted modern shoulder harness seat belts. Since there is no convenient place to mount the shoulder harness, I retrofitted a pair of 2003 Cadillac CTS power seats with integral seat belts. I'm sure there are several ways to do this, but I sided on over engineering it to provide as much safety margin as I could while retaining a clean assembly. In addition, I've included information on how to integrate the power seat controls without having to add the extra control electronics that came with the donor car.

Nice install, I am not a fan of retrofitting modern seats myself unless they look the part similar to the original seats. I like the disclaimer in the pdf.
 
Nice job. I have a set of Sebring seats for mine but if I ran across a set of the CTS seats I might have to grab them
