While all of them (1960's-1979) used a single bolt to hold them to the floor, the PRE-1972 ones sometimes had a small post that went into a guide hole in the floorpan, apparently to prevent the retractor housing from turning if the bolt were a bit loose.
They eliminated that in 1973 in favor of two nubs / protrusions (on the retractor base) that fit the grooves of the floorpan. Tighten the bolt well and they won't turn sideways if you are using this in a pre-1973 car. 1977 AUGUST - RED - PASSENGER FRONT RETRACTOR.
