68 Fastback Seat Belts ???

I am getting near the end of my 13 year project, and got the box of seat belts out. (* Yes, I bought the whole car in boxes *)  I have 9 sets of seat belts ???
Knowing that the Mustang is NOT a 9 passenger vehicle, I laid them all out and found that I have: 2 X 41 inches with button release, 4 X 26 inches with button release, 3 X 18 inches with metal clasp, 2 X 33 inches with button release, 2 X 36 inches with metal clasp and velcro (shoulder ???), and 2 X 16 Retractable with metal clasp.  ???

The ones that I believe to be the front shoulder with velcro on them do NOT have the pin that goes thru the slot on the lap belts (* as I remember them *) and NONE of the lap belts (* metal clasp *) ones has the slot for the shoulder belt pin to go thru.

???

I would appreciate someone with a 68 fastback to measure theirs and post the correct length for the according seatbelts !!!

I am pretty sure that the retactable pair are front seat, and other than that I'm CONFUSED !!!

Shouldn't there be 5 sets, or only 4, I thought 1 passenger got to ride on the "hump".

Thanks

Yeah the retractable (male) are for the front seat but those only connect to the seat belt. There are two females belts on the inside - one for the retractable male and one for the shoulder belt (which is male and mounts on the overhead). So two female belts on the hump on each side for the front. Then two sets for the rear, female to the outside on the rear. Dont have the length ,,,sorry.
