The mid-engine Porsche 914 has a cozy two-seat cabin where belts are always in view. This Seatbelt Planet kit for 1969-1972 cars supplies two non-reel-backed lap and shoulder belts fastened by end-release buckles, one for each front seat.
Fit Details
Listed for the front seats of 1969-1972 Porsche 914 models.
Color Choices
There are 52 webbing shades (13 premium), which covers the black and tan interiors common in early 914s and many brighter options too.
Time for New Belts?
Fixed three-point belts were how many early 914s were equipped, and a fresh pair replaces faded or frayed originals with clean, strong webbing.
Caring for Your Belts
Store the belts buckled when the car is parked, wash them with mild soap, and keep the buckles away from the door seals.
About the Early Porsche 914
Developed with Volkswagen, the 914 placed its engine behind the seats for excellent balance. It had a removable roof panel that stowed in the rear trunk, and it became one of the best-selling Porsches of its era.
Before You Install
No bolts come with this 914 kit; reuse good originals or buy fresh ones. Inspect all six anchor points and confirm the threads are clean.
Good to Know
Two belts for two seats.
End release buckles are simple and quick, and they work well in the 914's narrow footwells.
Fixed belts have no reel housing, so the cabin looks uncluttered.
Early 914s from these years have become sought after, and a correct-looking pair of belts suits a careful restoration.
Both belts are sewn from the same dye lot.
A cable-style end release version is sold as a separate listing for owners who prefer that design.
End release buckles on short webbing stalks sit low beside the seat cushion, where they are easy to find by feel.
With the roof panel stowed, the 914 is an open car, and fixed belts keep the straps from flapping in the wind.
With bolts gathered beforehand, the swap can be done in one session.
The 914 cabin is famously wide for its size, and properly adjusted fixed belts let both occupants sit comfortably.
Porsche sold the 914 through its joint Porsche-Audi dealer network in America, and many of these cars were used as daily drivers when new. As a result, original belts are often heavily worn. Replacing them with fresh fixed belts returns the cabin to a tidy, period-appropriate look without adding reels or modern hardware.
Fixed belts like these are adjusted once for the occupant and then stay at that length, which suits a car with one regular driver.
Early 914 owners often prefer fixed belts for their uncluttered look beside the console and seats.
