Product Description
The Triumph TR2 helped put British sports cars on the map in America, with its cutaway doors, simple dash and lively four-cylinder engine. Many TRs were built without seat belts or have had several sets fitted over the decades. This Driver & Passenger Seat Belt Kit from Seatbelt Planet gives both seats new lap belts with all-metal push button buckles, a look that suits the era of the car.
What the Kit Includes
Seatbelt Planet describes this as a two-point non-retractable lap seat belt kit with all-metal push button buckles. The details are:
- Two non-retractable 2-point lap belts
- All-metal push button buckles
- Coverage for the driver and passenger seats
- Mounting hardware included
A non-retractable lap belt is simple and has nothing to wear out or jam. The all-metal push button buckle gives a solid, period-appropriate feel that suits an open British sports car better than a plastic modern buckle.
Why Lap Belts for a TR
Open roadsters like the TR2 often have no practical place to mount a shoulder belt retractor, and many owners prefer the clean look of lap belts. They are easy to fit, unobtrusive and provide a meaningful improvement over no belts at all. For a car that is driven on weekends, at club events and on tours, a well-fitted lap belt is a sensible choice.
Fitment
This kit is listed for 1953-1967 Triumph TR2 applications. Triumph sports cars of this era vary, and many have been modified over the years. Before ordering, check where your car's floor anchor points are and whether they are in good condition. If you are unsure, send us your car's details and a photo of the mounting areas and we will help confirm fit.
Choose from 52 Webbing Colors
The Webbing Color menu has 52 options, so you can match your interior. Traditional choices such as Black, Grey, Tan, Camel-Tan, Chestnut, Brown, Dark-Brown, Almond, Medium-Beige, Ivory, Bone and White suit many original British trims. For red or blue interiors there are Maroon, Red-Wine, Ruby-Red, Flame-Red, Navy, Blue, Detroit-Blue and Laguna-Blue. Greens such as Dark-Green, Military-Green, Jungle-Green and Lime-Green, along with Cobalt, Honey, Speed-Yellow and others, cover more unusual color schemes.
Installation Tips
Floor pans in older British cars are prone to rust, so inspect the anchor areas carefully. A belt is only as strong as the metal it is bolted to. Repair any rust or weak metal before installing, and use the included hardware. Keep the webbing flat and untwisted, position the belt so it sits low across the hips when fastened, and tighten each bolt securely. Test each buckle before driving. If you are not sure the anchor points are strong enough, have a qualified shop inspect them.
A Worthwhile Addition
New belts are one of the simplest safety improvements you can make to a classic roadster, and with a color matched to the interior, they look like they belong. They are a sensible addition for any TR that is driven regularly.
