I'd like to add center seat belts in the rear seat of my '67 Imperial so that I can put the baby seat there and still carry two adults in the back. Although center seat belts were an option on Imperial in '67, mind didn't come with them.

Has anyone pulled/added/replaced rear seat belts? How long are the mounting bolts? Will I be able to buy a new belt set and use existing hardware, or am I looking at buying new bolts, as well?

Anything else I should look out for?
 
not familiar with your car in particular, but in general the center seat belts fasten with the bolts that are used for the inside half of the outer belts. if that makes any sense :) . those bolts are generally longer and have either a longer shoulder or extra spacers to allow the seat belts to pivot independently of each other.
 
Typicaly all three sets are the same in the rear, just find another and install. Yes the shoulder on the bolt is a little longer.
