Fitment Notes
Listed for the front bench seat of 1980-1989 Lincoln Town Car sedans.
Available Colors
Choose from 52 colors, 13 premium, to match the plush interiors these cars are known for.
Why New Belts Matter
Town Car belts see years of daily use, and the reels and webbing wear out. A fresh kit makes the front bench feel new again.
Keeping Them Like New
Wash gently and allow slow take-up on the reels.
About the Lincoln Town Car
Lincoln's full-size Town Car was redesigned for 1980 on Ford's Panther platform and became one of the best-selling luxury cars in America through the decade.
Before You Install
Inspect the anchor points along the floor and pillars and clean the threads.
Good to Know
Two outboard bench belts.
Metal push-to-release latches feel solid and last for years.
Both belts come from one dye lot.
Fresh belts suit a Town Car kept in show condition or used for weddings and events.
Retractors keep the straps tidy on the wide bench.
The Town Car's front bench seats three, and this kit covers the two outboard positions.
Metal push-to-release latches feel solid and last for years.
The Lincoln kit includes its hardware.
The Panther-platform Town Car was one of the most popular luxury cars of the eighties.
Choose a color that matches the interior, from blue and burgundy to tan and gray.
Fresh belts are an easy improvement for a car used for weddings, events or daily driving.
The 1980-1989 Town Car shared its basic structure with other Ford full-size cars, but its cabin was finished to a higher standard, with plush seats and soft carpet. The front bench is wide, and the outboard belts see the most wear.
A fresh pair of belts makes the front bench feel new again, and the all-metal buckles have a solid feel that suits the car.
Town Cars from this era are increasingly popular with collectors who appreciate American luxury cars.
The Town Car's front bench belts are mounted to the floor and to the B-pillar, with the retractor hidden in the pillar trim. Fresh belts move smoothly through the trim guides and retract cleanly.
Because the kit covers the two outboard positions, a separate center belt is needed if your car uses one.
Order a webbing shade that matches the velour or leather on your bench, since these cabins came in many colors.
New Town Car belts feel smooth and quiet in daily use.
