Vehicle Fit
Driver and passenger seats of 1966-1971 Mercedes-Benz 250 SE models.
Choosing a Color
Fifty-two webbing colors are available for the 250 SE kit.
Why Upgrade?
Owners of fuel-injected SE models tend to drive them often, and front belts in these cars wear from years of use.
Maintenance
Clean the 250 SE webbing with a damp cloth and a little mild soap, then allow it to air dry.
About the Mercedes-Benz 250 SE
The SE suffix marked Mercedes-Benz models with fuel injection, and the 250 SE name appeared on both sedans and the elegant coupe and cabriolet.
Before You Install
Hardware is not included, so verify that the original 250 SE anchors are intact.
Good to Know
Seatbelt Planet does not supply hardware with this kit.
The lift latch design opens by raising a hinged cover on the buckle face.
Chrome buckles suit cars with bright interior trim, while Black Wrinkle gives a subtler look.
Fixed belts adjust by hand with no reel, which keeps the design simple.
Mercedes leather and MB-Tex interiors from these years came in black, red, tan and blue.
A rear center belt for the 250 SE is sold separately.
250 SE coupes and cabriolets from the W111 family are especially sought-after collector cars, while SE sedans share the W108 body.
Fuel injection made the SE models smoother and more responsive than the carbureted S versions.
Owners restoring a 250 SE often prefer lift latch buckles because they look right in a 1960s Mercedes cabin.
Fixed belts adjust with a slide and keep the cabin uncluttered without bulky reels.
Seatbelt Planet does not supply mounting bolts, so check the original Mercedes anchors.
Red and black leather interiors are popular in 250 SE coupes and cabriolets.
Order the rear center belt if you want the middle rear seat covered.
Mercedes-Benz led the industry in safety research in the 1960s, and good belts suit these cars.
Black wrinkle buckles blend nicely with dark 250 SE leather, while polished chrome suits lighter interiors.
A 250 SE cabriolet with the top down puts the front belts in full sun, so durable webbing matters.
Collectors of W111 coupes and cabriolets often keep the interior as original as possible, and lift latch buckles help achieve that.
Seatbelt Planet also sells this front kit for the carbureted 250 S sedan.
Seatbelt Planet's 250 SE kit matches its 250 S kit in construction, but it is listed separately so SE owners can find it by model name.
