I did this conversion on a 405 wagon a number of years ago. If you
are replacing the seat belts, you are going to be putting new trim
around the doors and you might as well pull everything, drop the
headliner and have the fabric redone. Once you have it out, and it
does come out the back pretty easily, it is not expensive for an
upholstery shop to do. Your local body shop can recommend someone.
Now, as to the seat belts, I remember it was a simple shift, and
there were mounting points for everything on that car. The thing I
did not realize until I had it back together is that the headliner
for power seat belts is cut back over the front doors to accomodate
the track, and the narrower door trim will NOT cover the edge. So you
have to come up with a tidy trim detail at that edge. A narrow piece
of beige flexible plastic would work fine.
