About the Monaco Diplomat
The Diplomat was one of several Monaco diesel pushers, sold in the same era as the Knight, Camelot and Dynasty.
Pre-Install Checklist
Look at how your Diplomat's belt anchors to the chair or floor before ordering.
Good to Know
The listing does not mention hardware.
Order two belts if both Diplomat cockpit chairs need new ones.
Push button buckles on this belt match the original Diplomat style.
Diplomat coaches sold today often get new cockpit belts as part of a pre-sale refresh.
Call 574-226-6676 with questions about your Diplomat belt.
Plastic push button buckles on older Diplomat belts can crack, which makes replacement wise.
Order one Diplomat belt per cockpit seat.
Sun through the Diplomat windshield fades belts over time.
Neutral webbing suits most Diplomat interiors.
Check the Diplomat seat base or floor mount before ordering.
Replacing both Diplomat belts keeps them matched.
Monaco built the Diplomat in Coburg, Oregon.
Diplomat buyers often check the belts during inspections.
Full-time Diplomat owners put many miles on the cockpit belts.
Diplomat owners who park for months at a southern resort should cover the windshield to slow fading on both cockpit belts.
Mice in a stored Diplomat coach sometimes chew webbing, so pull out both belts and inspect them each spring.
Air-ride chairs in the Diplomat cockpit move with the road, and a smooth reel lets the belt follow without tugging.
A Diplomat that tows a car often makes long driving days, and the driver belt shows wear at the latch plate first.
Spilled drinks around the Diplomat cockpit can make the push button buckle sticky; rinse it with warm water.
Diplomat floor plans often included a large dash and wide cockpit, and both seats use a belt of this style.
Cockpit belts in a Diplomat that has been rented or used as a demo coach may show heavier wear than its mileage suggests.
Before a long Diplomat trip, tug sharply on each cockpit belt to confirm the reel locks.
The Diplomat name carried a sense of comfort, and its cockpit offered wide chairs with armrests that the belt has to clear when buckled.
Owners moving from a gas coach to a Diplomat often notice the quieter rear diesel, which makes long days in the driver seat more common.
When a Diplomat's passenger chair has been reupholstered, confirm the new cover leaves room for the belt to pass through.
