Product Description
1996-1999 Honda Civic, Sedan, Rear Driver & Passenger Seat Belt Kit
- Rear driver and passenger positions
- Three-point retractable lap and shoulder belts
- End release buckles
- Hardware included
- Sedan only
Back seat passengers in a sixth-generation Civic sedan get new three-point restraints with this Seatbelt Planet rear kit for the two outer rear seats.
Fitment Notes
Fits both outer rear spots of a 1996-1999 Civic four-door; two-door coupes and hatchbacks need other parts.
Available Colors
Webbing is offered in 52 colors for the rear pair.
Why New Belts Matter
Rear belts in these sedans see child seats and booster seats, which put a lot of wear on the latch plate and webbing.
Keeping Them Like New
Clean the rear straps gently and let them dry before they retract into the parcel shelf.
About the Honda Civic
Honda's 1996 redesign gave the Civic sedan a slightly longer wheelbase, and the rear seat became a more comfortable place for adults.
Pre-Install Checklist
Check the rear floor anchors and the upper mounts near the rear deck before ordering.
Good to Know
Hardware is included.
End release buckles are used on both rear belts.
Seatbelt Planet makes the pair to order.
Sun through the rear glass fades rear webbing more than you might expect.
Add the rear center belt if the middle position also needs work.
Match the shade to your front belts.
Back seat belts in the 1996-1999 Civic sedan anchor on the parcel shelf, where the reels sit beneath the rear window and take the full force of summer heat.
That heat dries out the plastic guides and stiffens the webbing, so the straps can stop retracting fully and end up lying across the seat cushion.
Parents who move booster seats in and out of these cars often find the rear latch plates scratched and the straps twisted.
This kit covers only the two outer rear positions, and Seatbelt Planet sells the center lap belt for the same sedan as a separate part.
With both rear outer belts replaced together, the back seat looks consistent and both sides retract the same way.
Seatbelt Planet makes these to order, so pick the shade that matches your front belts and upholstery.
Many of these sedans are now in the hands of second and third owners who plan to drive them for years, and fresh rear belts make the back seat more pleasant for passengers.
Before ordering, open both rear doors and pull each strap all the way out to check for cuts and slow retraction.
A sixth-generation Civic sedan's back seat was a popular spot for car seats, so the outer rear restraints in many of these cars have been buckled and unbuckled thousands of times.
Sixth-generation Civic four-doors also had a fold-down rear seatback on some trims, and folding it often traps the outer rear straps against the cushion.
Rear outer straps on an EK four-door usually fade unevenly, with the side facing the afternoon sun turning paler.
