Stupid question re installing setbelts

Hey guys. I recently took out my seatbealts to paint the cab floor.... upon installing, i realised i didnt take any notice on how they where installed.
Does anyone have a pic of which way they are assembled and bolted into the floor... (centre lap and catchers)
i know this seems like a very obvious question, but too many hours working on this truck and my brain is frazzled.
Cheers

The belt with a step in the metal tab goes on top of the one with the straight tab.
​​​​​​​Is that what you mean?

​​​​​​​The center lap belt has the latch on the drivers side and the tongue & adjuster on the passenger side.

Hmm, maybe something changed with the model years.

I had my seat out to reupolster it about a month ago.
There was no question in my mind at the time.
​​​​​​​I'll take a look/picture in the morning.
