Can't help with the starting procedure, but the seat belt drill is as
follows:
Contact Clarke Spares and Restorations. They sell a complete kit for
installing seat belts. WARNING! If you want to install 3 point belts in
a pre Mk II (1962) MGA, you may have some body work to do. Since mine is
a Mk II with the factory supplied anchor points, I don't have the
experience of the earlier models and can't give you specifics. Todd
Clarke certainly can.

P.S. E-mail me if you need Clarke's particulars.
