Seat belt mounting threads

Another quick task which needs to be done is cleaning the seat belt threads of powder coat to allow for the seat belt anchors to screw through cleanly.

Using a 7/16 x 20 UNC tap sourced off ebay together with plenty of WD40 sprayed into each thread I gently turned the tap 1/4 turn clockwise 1/2 turn anticlockwise being fully aware not to cross thread the existing threads.

All eight anchorage points cleaned and the thread runs nice and true.
