Product Description
1994-1996 Dodge Dakota, Extended Cab, Driver or Passenger, Bench Seat Belt
- One front outboard bench seat, driver or passenger
- Three-point retractable lap and shoulder belt
- End release buckle
- Hardware included
Dodge's Dakota carved out its own niche between the compact pickups and the full-size trucks, and the Club Cab body added useful room behind the seat. For one front outboard place on that bench, this Seatbelt Planet part is a reel-type lap-and-shoulder restraint with a button-on-the-end latch.
Vehicle Fit
Made for the driver or passenger outboard bench seat of 1994-1996 Dodge Dakota extended cab trucks. Order one belt per seat.
Choosing a Color
The webbing comes in 52 colors, and a handful of specialty shades are marked with an upcharge in the menu.
Why Upgrade?
After nearly thirty years of use, original Dakota belts commonly retract slowly, fray at the edges or fail to lock on a sharp pull.
Maintenance
Wipe the Dakota strap with mild soapy water and let it hang out of the reel until fully dry.
About the Dodge Dakota
Dodge launched the Dakota for 1987 and added the Club Cab body for 1990, offering a V6 and later the 5.2 liter Magnum V8 in a truck smaller than a Ram.
Pre-Install Checklist
Look at the floor anchor and the pillar mount on the side you are replacing, and clean any rust or old thread locker off the bolts.
Good to Know
Seatbelt Planet includes the mounting hardware with this belt.
A single belt is the sensible order when the other front belt still latches and retracts cleanly.
Seatbelt Planet makes each belt once you choose a color, so allow a little production time.
Many first-generation Dakotas were bought as small work trucks and still earn their keep on farms and job sites.
Hold the replacement up to the original belt before removal to compare length and the anchor ends.
If both front belts are worn, the pair kit for the same truck keeps the colors matched.
Gray, blue and red cloth interiors were common in these trucks, and the color menu covers all of them.

Webbing that has turned chalky in the sun is a good reason to retire the old belt even if it still latches.
Front bench Dakotas from 1994 through 1996 were often ordered in base or Sport trim, and the single outboard belt suits either one.
A Club Cab owner who keeps the passenger side original can still get a matching look by choosing the closest shade from the color menu.
Truck owners in the South often find the driver side webbing bleached pale by years of sun through the windshield.
Fresh webbing on the driver side of an old Dakota bench is the kind of small fix that makes every drive feel better.
