Yes, the stock hardware on the B pillar works with only one small issue. The hole in the seat belt "reel" is ever so slightly undersized. I was able to clean it up with a 1/2" drill bit and cordless drill.

The starter bracket is present and accounted for. However, the nut was finger tight and almost off. It's good to go now.
