The Seatbelt Planet 1979-1983 Datsun 280ZX 2+2, Driver & Passenger Seat Belt Kit, sold by Vintage Car Radio, updates the front seats of these longer-wheelbase Z-cars with modern three-point restraint while preserving their refined grand-touring character.
The 280ZX 2+2 offered a more versatile take on the classic Z formula. By stretching the wheelbase, Datsun created space for a pair of small rear seats, turning the car into a genuine occasional four-seater without abandoning the smooth 2.8-liter inline-six
or the polished handling that defined the model. The front seats still placed the driver and passenger in a low, connected position suited to spirited driving and long-distance cruising. Over the years the original front belts have typically suffered the common
fate of period restraints: webbing that has faded and weakened, buckles that no longer operate cleanly, or complete removal during earlier interior work.
This kit from Seatbelt Planet supplies a complete pair of 3-point belts configured for the 1979-1983 280ZX 2+2 front seats. The webbing is dense, UV-stable polyester selected for consistent strength and long-term appearance, available in colours that align with the interiors used in these cars. The buckles are solid metal with a chrome finish and a firm, positive action. Matching hardware allows the installation to sit cleanly within the cabin rather than appearing as an obvious later addition.
The belts are manufactured to meet the performance requirements of FMVSS 209 for tensile strength, controlled elongation, abrasion resistance and buckle function. Wide-range adjustment lets different drivers and passengers achieve a secure, comfortable fit
while maintaining the low seating position that is central to the car’s feel.
Mounting is intended to work with the existing floor structure. All necessary fasteners are included. In most cases only limited preparation is required. Important: torque values and the assembly sequence must be taken exclusively from the instructions supplied
with the kit. Correct tightening is essential for the system to perform as designed.
Owners who still drive their 280ZX 2+2 regularly—whether on preferred roads, longer tours or club events—gain a clear improvement in everyday security. The front seats receive proper three-point protection without disturbing the car’s balance of performance
and limited four-seat practicality.
Vintage Car Radio supplies the complete Seatbelt Planet kit with the correct hardware and guidance, keeping the installation process clear for both professional workshops and experienced owners.
The result is a discreet, functional update that allows the 280ZX 2+2’s distinctive grand-touring qualities to be enjoyed with greater confidence. The car keeps its identity; the front seats are simply brought to a higher standard of restraint. Order from Vintage
Car Radio and equip your classic Datsun with a restraint solution matched to its refined, longer-wheelbase character.
