Does anyone know anything about installing seatbelts w/ shoulder straps into a '68 El Camino/Chevelle/Malibu?

I just bought a Camino and it's belts are torn up and can't be used. I could replace them with lap belts, but I'd like to go all the way with the shoulder harness. In particular I need some information on safe place mounting places. Any info would be helpfull. Thanks.

i've seen this done, both belts were bolted where the original lap belt was behind the seat, had a carrier strap bolted right behind the top of the door, into the heavy part of the pillar where the door closed, much like the pick ups have. it wasn't a real good setup, awkward to get into, straps in the way of the door closin, might take some finesse to get it right.
