Good to Know
Hardware is not stated for this Blazer rear belt.
A fixed lap belt uses a slide adjuster, so passengers snug it by pulling the loose end.
Order one belt for each rear position you want to cover in the K5.
Seatbelt Planet sells front belts for these Blazers separately.
Black, blue and saddle webbing match many K5 interiors.
Rear belts in topless Blazers are exposed to sun and rain, which fades and stiffens the webbing.

Many K5 Blazers were lifted and fitted with larger tires, and rear seat passengers still need a secure lap belt.
The K5 Blazer rear seat folds or comes out entirely, and a fixed lap belt is simple to keep in place when the seat goes back in.
Topless K5 Blazers are popular in summer, but rear passengers still need a secure lap belt.

Seatbelt Planet sells front K5 belts and a center front belt separately.
Webbing in saddle, blue and charcoal tones suits common K5 interiors.
Order one belt for each rear position in your K5.
K5 owners who restore the rear bench often discover the factory belts were cut out years ago, leaving only the floor bolts behind.
