Seatbelt Planet's retractable belt for the 1965-1969 Porsche 912 gives one front seat a three-point lap and shoulder belt on a reel, with a lift latch buckle and mounting hardware included. The retractor keeps the strap tidy and makes the belt more comfortable to wear on long drives.
Fitment Notes
Listed for the driver or passenger seat of 1965-1969 Porsche 912 models. Seatbelt Planet notes that cars without factory-installed three-point belts may require modification to install the retractor.
Available Colors
Choose from 52 colors, 13 premium. Select chrome or wrinkle black for the lift latch.
Why New Belts Matter
A retracting belt is easier to live with than a fixed strap, especially in a car that sees regular use, because it adjusts itself and stays out of the way when unbuckled.
Keeping Them Like New
Let the reel draw the strap back without snapping and wash the strap with diluted mild soap.
About the Porsche 912 Retractable
The 912 offered the 911's look and handling with a lighter four-cylinder engine, and its balance has made it a favorite with drivers who enjoy a nimble classic car.
Pre-Install Checklist
Check whether your car has factory three-point mounting points and room for the retractor before ordering.
Good to Know
One retractable belt.
If your 912 lacks factory three-point provisions, plan for the modification Seatbelt Planet mentions, or call 574-226-6676 to talk it through.
The reel holds the shoulder strap up by the pillar.
Order a second belt in the same shade for the other side.
Lift latches look right in a sixties Porsche.
Many early 912s left the factory with lap belts only, and later owners often want the comfort of a shoulder strap. This retracting belt is one way to get it, as long as the car can accept the reel.
A retractor locks under sudden load and otherwise lets the wearer move freely, which makes reaching the radio or the gear lever easy while buckled.
Chrome and black wrinkle lift latch finishes are both offered, so the buckle can match the rest of the trim in your car.
If the car has been fitted with fixed belts in the past, look at whether the old mounting points are in the right place for a reel before you order.
Retracting belts suit a 912 used for commuting or long highway trips, where the wearer will be belted in for hours. The reel lets the occupant lean forward to adjust the mirror or reach the glovebox, and the strap returns to the pillar on its own once released.
The reel also keeps the webbing off the sill, where it could be scuffed.
