They brought them in around 1962ish. My '63 model (built Oct '62) has the factory points.
They only had two points per belt, for a sash belt. One is on the tunnel beside the seat and the other is just below and behind the curved base plate
for the chrome window pillar. The chrome trim above the rear quarter panel is made a little shorter.
Both are quite large, there is a reducing bush to use the standard bolt - it's the same as the beetle.
Send me your email by PM and I'll send a photo, may take a couple of days before I get to it though. Can probably answer (by photo) your other query
too.
