For Torino owners who want both front riders in shoulder belts, Seatbelt Planet sells this two-belt conversion kit for 1971-1976 cars. Each side gets a retractable lap and chest belt with a metal push-to-release latch, and the kit includes hardware. Both belts are made in the same color run so they match.
Fitment
Seatbelt Planet's application is the driver and passenger front seats of 1971-1976 Ford Torino models.
Webbing Colors
Webbing comes in 52 shades, 13 premium, from black and white to blues, greens and reds.
Why Replace?
Upgrading both sides at once gives the cabin a uniform look and adds shoulder restraint for both front occupants.
Belt Care
Wash the webbing gently, let it dry before retracting, and keep the latch plates clear of the door when closing it.
About the Ford Torino Front Seat
The Torino carried Ford's intermediate lineup through the seventies, offering engines from thrifty sixes to big-block V8s. Its long hood and wide stance still turn heads at shows.
Before You Install
Check both upper anchor locations and clean all floor anchor threads before the kit arrives.
Good to Know
Driver and passenger belts included.
Ordering a kit keeps the dye lot identical across both seats.
Reels keep the straps tidy when nobody is sitting up front.
A matched pair helps the interior look like a planned restoration.
Pair with our rear Torino belts for full coverage.
Shoulder belts make long drives in a big Ford more comfortable for passengers.
Seatbelt Planet rates both belts in this kit to FMVSS 209 and 302.
A Torino with its original lap belts can still be a fine driver, but adding shoulder restraint up front is one of the most practical safety upgrades for a heavy seventies intermediate. The kit does both seats in one order.
Before ordering, confirm upper anchor locations on both sides of your body style and clean all floor anchor threads. Fastbacks, hardtops and sedans may differ.
With both belts sewn from the same roll, there is no color mismatch from left to right, which matters in a cabin with large expanses of matching vinyl or cloth.
Torinos from these years range from plain sedans to Gran Torino Sport fastbacks, and this kit suits all of them that share the listed fitment.
Pair the kit with rear belts in the same shade for a complete cabin refresh.
Torino wagons and sedans with the listed fitment use the same approach, so families who haul kids in a Ranch Wagon can benefit just as much as fastback owners.
Torinos remain a classic car favorite at cruise nights.
