Product Description
1968-1972 Chevrolet El Camino, Driver, Passenger & Center, Bench Seat Belt Kit
- Three-belt bench kit
- Retracting outboard lap and shoulder belts
- All-metal push button buckles
- Hardware included
- FMVSS 209 and 302 rated
For El Camino owners who want the whole bench done at once, this kit covers all three front positions in 1968-1972 cars: retracting three-point belts at each door and a center belt in the middle, all with all-metal push button buckles and mounting hardware.
Where It Fits
Seatbelt Planet lists the three-belt kit for 1968 through 1972 El Caminos with a front bench seat. If only the outboard seats need attention, the two-belt kit is offered separately.
Color Options
All three belts come in the color you select from fifty-two options; thirteen are premium shades. That keeps the whole bench perfectly matched.
Why Replace Old Belts?
Replacing all three at once means every person on the bench gets fresh webbing and matching hardware, rather than mixing new outboard belts with a tired original in the middle.
Care Tips
Rest the center strap atop the seat between rides, and wipe all three straps occasionally with a damp cloth.
About the Chevrolet El Camino
El Caminos built from 1968 to 1972 are some of Chevrolet's most loved car-based pickups, offered with everything from inline sixes to the 454 V8.
Before You Install
Inspect the floor, cab back wall and center anchors before installing. Clean the threads and check for rust.
Good to Know
One order covers the entire bench.
Families who use an El Camino for cruise nights can carry three people up front safely with this kit.
Ordering the kit costs less than buying three belts separately.
The matching push button buckles across the bench give a tidy, factory-like appearance.
Because the kit includes three belts, it is also a good choice for owners building a show car who want everything to match exactly. The center belt halves can be tucked under a fold-down armrest on cars that have one. Plan the installation with the seat removed so you can reach the cab back panel and center anchors easily, then fit the retractors, bolt down the center belt and reinstall the bench. Check each retractor locks with a sharp tug once the job is done.
Matching three belts also helps if the car will be judged, since mismatched webbing across a bench is a common deduction. And for drivers, it simply feels better to have every buckle work the same way.
Ordering the full kit also simplifies the process: one part number, one color selection, and all three positions covered.
