Choosing a Webbing Color

Why Replace Old Belts
Original belts in a vehicle of this age have seen decades of heat cycles and UV. Fresh webbing and hardware give you confidence every time you drive.
Before You Install
Sit in the seat and confirm the lap belt will cross low on the hips and that the shoulder portion clears the neck. Adjust mounting or bracket choices before you drill. We sell the product and related accessories, but we do not offer installation.
Belt Care
Inspect belts regularly for fraying, faded webbing, or sticky retractors. Clean webbing with mild soap and water and let it dry fully.
