Default Sparco Evo with Brey Krause side mounts - question

After doing a lot of searching and head scratching on aftermarket seat options I am leaning towards this solution:

Driver Seat: Sparco EVO with Brey Krause 9072 side mount on OEM manual slider
Pax seat Sparco Evo II with Brey Krause 9073 side mount on OEM manual slider.

These side mounts are specific to the EVO and EVO II seats and I chose this setup to retain a seat belt receptacle that moves with the seat on a slider that is rated to take the load.

My question is: does anyone know if these seat specific BK side mounts position the tunnel side seat belt receptacle so that it pokes through the lap belt hole in the side of the EVO seats?

OEM Slider & side mount pics attached: R-9072 for skinny seat and R-9073 for wide seat. I'd prefer to avoid having the receptacle outside the seat as in the last pic.

NB car is RHD.

I have been fighting this one - the short answer is NO you cannot feed thru the hole on the console side....

the long answer is I am a machinist and DAMMIT - I want the seat belt (stock) thru the holes. I have found that rear seat belt recepticles are shorter (in my year) so I boght a pair and I mounted one as low as I could and am able to use the hole.... I have only completed the passenger side and am waiting for some new sliders before I tear the drivers side apart to make the new mounting point for the recepticle...

so the stock belt rides ont top of the bolsters, not ideal...but I have driven like that for 3 years now, the fix is coming
