Fitment Notes
Listed for 1968-1973 Ford Mustang convertibles, driver and passenger.
Available Colors
Fifty-two colors, 13 premium.
Why New Belts Matter
Convertible interiors take more sun and moisture than closed cars, so belts fade, stiffen and can mildew. A fresh retractable pair restores both front seats with clean webbing and buckles that latch firmly.
Keeping Them Like New
Cover the cabin when parked outside, air-dry wet straps and wash with gentle soap.
About the 1968-1973 Mustang Convertible
Ford built Mustang convertibles every year from 1968 through 1973. The 1968 cars continued the original styling, the 1969-1970 cars were restyled, and the 1971-1973 Mustangs grew larger; 1973 was the last Mustang convertible until 1983.
Pre-Install Checklist
Clean the floor anchor threads on both sides.
Good to Know
Hardware included.
Seatbelt Planet sews the pair to order.
Matching the interior color helps a convertible look sharp.
Convertible Mustangs are popular classic cars.
The convertible kit is rated to FMVSS 209 and 302.
Convertible Mustangs from 1968 through 1973 include the last of the classic-size cars and the larger 1971-1973 models, and Seatbelt Planet lists this kit for the whole span.
Retractable lap belts pull the strap back against the seat when not in use, so it does not flap in the wind with the top down or get caught in the door.
Before ordering, clean the floor anchor threads on both sides and check the floor pans for rust, which is common in convertibles exposed to rain.
Mustang convertible interiors in colors like red, black, white and blue are easy to match with Seatbelt Planet's wide color menu.
Seatbelt Planet sews both belts in one color once you order, so they arrive matched.
New straps are an easy way to ready a ragtop for summer.
Coupe and fastback owners should use Seatbelt Planet's other Mustang listings, since this kit is listed for convertibles.
Most Mustang convertibles of these years have front buckets, and each seat gets its own retractable lap belt in this kit. The all-metal buckles have a firm, satisfying click that suits the car's sporty character, and Seatbelt Planet's wide color range helps match interiors like red, black, blue, white or saddle.
Ragtop Mustangs are some of the most popular classic cars on the road today.
Matched belts finish the cabin nicely.
Convertible owners who park outside often see the belts take the worst of the weather, so a fresh pair in a durable webbing color is worth considering before the next cruising season.
