Why New Belts Matter
Full-size Chevrolet lap belts get stepped on and shut in doors, and many have worn latch plates.
Keeping Them Like New
Clean both lap straps with mild soap and dry them before they retract.
About the Chevrolet Impala
The Impala was one of America's most familiar full-size cars of this era, sold as sedans, hardtops, convertibles and wagons.
Pre-Install Checklist
Inspect the floor anchors before ordering.
Good to Know
Hardware is included.
Retractable lap belts store neatly instead of lying on the seat.
Seatbelt Planet makes the pair to order.
Most 1969-1973 Impalas left the factory with a full-width bench seat, and this Seatbelt Planet pair is listed for bench or bucket cars.
Impalas of this era were enormous cars, and the front belts anchor far apart across the wide floor.
Seatbelt Planet sells a separate bucket seat kit under the same name, so we added Bench or Bucket to this title to keep them separate.
Retractable lap belts keep the strap off the floor where it could get dirty or shut in the long doors.
The all-metal push button buckles look right in a 1970s Chevrolet.
Seatbelt Planet stitches both Impala lap belts after you choose the webbing color.
Owners refreshing an Impala's interior often replace both front belts along with the seat covers.
Check both floor anchor points for rust before ordering.
Full-size Chevrolets of 1969-1973 usually had a full-width front bench, and the driver and passenger lap belts anchor near the doors with buckle halves toward the middle.
Impala sedans, Sport Coupes and convertibles of these years were sold in huge numbers, and many survivors have original lap belts that no longer retract.
Retractable lap belts in an Impala keep the webbing off the floor so it does not get dirty or caught in the wide, heavy doors.
Owners who are unsure which of the two same-named Impala kits to order can call us with photos of their seats and existing belts.
An Impala getting new seat covers or carpet is a good candidate for a matched pair of new lap belts.
Bench-seat Impalas also need a middle restraint for a third front rider, and that piece is not part of this two-belt kit.
Impala owners comparing the two same-name kits should note this one fits bench or bucket front seats in 1969-1973 cars.
