Brief Description:  Rear seat lap belt attach (problems)

The plans called for bolting the rear seat lap belt attach brackets to the lower longerons. There is an additional bracket that sets just above the lower longeron and rivets to the skin. I missed it somewhere, but the seat belt attach brackets have to fit BETWEEN the longeron and the upper reinforcement. I had drilled them wrong so I'll have to order new a F-875C and drill out the 6 or so rivets on each side. Oh well, at least I have other stuff to do while the order gets fulfilled. Needless to say this :45 min session wasn't too productive.

These are the brackets that sandwich between the longeron and upper reinforcement.

Here is the upper, offending bracket (F875C) with it drilled in place there's no room between the 2.

Blurry, but the top row of 6 rivets were drilled out (right side shown).
