They are mounted very low, and not on the pillar at all. The seat
belt reel mounts to a bracket affixed to one end of the bar that
bolts to the back of the seat pedestal. The receiving end of the belt
pair mounts to the same one the front seat belt does, on the down low
in the walkway between the seats. It mounts on a stiff, rubber-
covered but somewhat flexible cable that always keeps the receiving
end up in the air, but is not so stiff that it would hurt anyone or
anything bumping into it.

Let me know if you want to see a picture.
