Product Description
1969-1972 Porsche 914, Driver & Passenger Seat Belt Kit with Cable End Release Buckle
- Driver and passenger pair
- Non-retracting three-point belts
- Cable-style end release buckles
- Hardware not included
- FMVSS 209 and 302 rated
Seatbelt Planet offers the early 914 kit in a second form with cable-style end release buckles. The buckle rides on a short, stiff cable stalk that holds it upright beside the seat, making it easy to find. The kit includes two non-reel-fed three-point lap-and-shoulder belts one per front seat.
Where It Fits
Seatbelt Planet fits this cable-buckle set to both front seats of 1969-1972 914s.
Color Options
Webbing: 52 shades, 13 premium.
Why Replace Old Belts?
A stalk-mounted buckle stays where you expect it rather than slipping down between the seat and console, which many drivers appreciate in a small two-seater.
Care Tips
Avoid bending the cable stalk sharply, keep the release clean, and wash the webbing with a mild soap solution.
About the Porsche 914 Cable Release
The 914 was offered in four-cylinder form and, briefly, as the six-cylinder 914/6. Its targa-style top and mid-engine layout gave it a character all its own among sports cars of the early seventies.
Pre-Install Checklist
You supply the bolts for this cable-buckle set, either original or new. Confirm the tunnel-side anchor points are clean and undamaged.
Good to Know
Two belts, cable-style buckles.
Cable buckles add a touch of seventies style that suits the 914's era.
Fixed belts keep the cabin simple and light.
Both belts come from one webbing lot so the color matches.
Pick this version if you like a buckle that stands up on its own.
For a softer strap-mounted buckle, the standard end release kit is also available.
A cable-mounted buckle stands up beside the seat cushion, so you do not have to dig for it each time you get in.
Some owners choose this style to match the look of their car's original equipment, others simply for convenience.
The cable stalk is stiff enough to hold its shape but flexible enough to move with the seat.
Hardware is not included, so collect the right bolts before you begin.
Both belts in the kit use the same webbing color you select.
The cable-style end release design was common on cars of the late sixties and early seventies. The buckle housing is joined to a short braided steel cable covered with a sleeve, and the stalk keeps the buckle upright and ready. Many 914 owners find it the more convenient of the two layouts.
If you are unsure which buckle style suits your car, compare the photos of both kits, or call us and describe what is fitted now.
Each belt in the kit is a three-point lap and shoulder design without a reel.
The upright buckle stalk is handy in the low 914 seats, where reaching down between the cushion and tunnel can be awkward.
