I no longer own my bus so I can't look at it so I am going by memory. 

It seems to me o used the factory bolts to the body. The only exception I remember was that small hole I made to allow for that pin to set it on the mount. The other option was to grind that off. I chose to keep it so the seat belt mount didn't shift at all. Though I hated to add a hole to the bus.
