Product Description
1997-1999 Ford F-150, Standard Cab, Driver & Passenger Bench Seat Belt Kit
- Driver and passenger bench seats
- Two belts in the kit
- Bench seat applications

Both outer places on a 1997-1999 F-150 regular cab bench are renewed with this pair.
Fitment
Made for the two outboard bench spots in a 1997-99 F-150 regular cab.
Webbing Colors
Pick any of 52 webbing tones for your pair; older wording mentions 32.
Why Replace?
Both outer straps in a family or work F-150 tend to age together, so replacing them as a pair keeps the cab even.
Belt Care
Sponge both bench straps lightly and dry them fully extended.
About the Ford F-150
Ford's 1997 redesign moved the F-150 toward a more car-like ride with independent front suspension on two-wheel drive trucks.
Before You Install
Check both pillar bolts and both floor anchors for rust.
Good to Know
Hardware is not mentioned on the listing; call us if you need to confirm.
Two matching belts give a regular cab a uniform look from the doorway.
The middle bench belt and a full three-belt kit are offered for the same truck.
Tenth-generation regular cabs were popular as fleet trucks, so many have heavily worn front belts.
Seatbelt Planet makes the pair in your chosen shade.
A refreshed pair of belts suits a F-150 that is getting new seat covers or carpet.
Black webbing is a safe match for nearly every interior color Ford offered in these years.
F-150 regular cabs from 1997-1999 came with short and long beds, and the cab belts are shared.
Doing the left and right outboard positions together on a 1997-1999 F-150 regular cab is a common choice when the truck is getting a new seat cover, because the fresh fabric makes a tired strap stand out right away when you open either door.
This generation was Motor Trend's Truck of the Year for 1997, and the interior was a large part of why, with a roomier cab, softer lines, and a bench designed so two adults and a passenger in the middle could ride in reasonable comfort.
With two belts arriving in one box, the color will be identical on both sides, which is hard to manage when sourcing used parts, since sun exposure through the side glass fades a driver strap differently from the passenger strap over two decades.
If the middle position on your bench is still in good shape, this pair covers the two outboard places that see the most use, and the center belt can be added later from the separate listing if it ever needs attention.
Owners restoring a low-mileage XLT often pick medium graphite or a tan to match the original cloth, while fleet trucks with vinyl seats usually look right with plain black on both outboard places.
