How do you fit it? I thought that you'd attach it behind the bolts but theres only 1 hole on the strap.

put it over the the bolt on one side, push the bolt through so that it is only just poking the the opposite side to where you have the strap fitted, pull the strap tight, mark the hole, punch it out then trim the end to match the opposite side !!
Alternatively, go see the R.C.O.C for a mk2 strap, or contact the seat restoration specialist Niven Ladd.
