Seat Belts

Post by Ramzi »

We have a good customer who is looking for a set of new seat belts for his '79 Spider. Rather than re-inventing the belt, I was wondering what modern belts others have installed and if there were any pitfalls to look for.

Thanks

Nick ,I think it was these(4 years ago,receipt long gone).The inertia reel bolted right in.I cut the little shouler loop off,as we dont need it for our cars.140'' with a fixed receiver.They still look and work like new.One of the best things I have done is replace the old belts.

I was happy with seat belt planet. Sent them
My entire assembly with retractor from my 84 Spider
Wasn't cheap 145.00 with shipping for just the passenger side.
Done like original and done correctly.

Mr. Fiat sells "original" replacements.

I am very happy with the set I got from them when I converted my lap belts to shoulder belts.
