Product Description
When a seat belt buckle sits too low or too far back, the belt becomes awkward to use and may not sit properly across the hips. Often the fix is an extension bracket that raises the buckle and changes its angle at the same time. The Seatbelt Planet 6" Angle Bracket is designed to do exactly that.
Specifications
Seatbelt Planet describes this part as a 6" angled floor extension bracket, offered in a left (A) or right (B) configuration with a 65-degree angle. Its listed features are:
- Length: 6 inches
- Angle: 65 degrees
- Configuration: left (A) or right (B), depending on the mounting point
- Great for extending buckle length
- Brand: Seatbelt Planet
Left or Right?
Because the bracket is angled, it has a left and a right orientation. Which one you need depends on which side of the seat it mounts on and which way the belt needs to point. If you are unsure which configuration suits your installation, contact us with a description or photo of the mounting point before ordering, and we will help you work it out.
Why Use an Angled Bracket
A buckle mounted directly to the floor often sits buried between the seat cushion and the console or door. An angled extension lifts it up and tilts it toward the occupant, which makes it easier to find and fasten. It is especially useful in:
- Classic cars fitted with thicker modern seats or new foam
- Bucket seat conversions where the original anchor points no longer line up
- Custom builds and resto-mods with relocated seats
- Cars where the factory buckle is hard to reach
Ordering
Each bracket extends one anchor point. If you are doing both front seats, you will typically need one for each buckle. Use the quantity menu to order up to four.
Hardware and Mounting
Use proper seat belt bolts of the correct grade and thread, along with lock washers or locking nuts. Where the floor metal is thin, back the bolt with a reinforcement plate. Seatbelt Planet offers several hardware kits that pair with its brackets, and we carry many of them. Always mount the bracket to solid, rust-free metal.
Fitting Tips
Mock up the bracket and buckle before tightening anything. Sit in the seat and fasten the belt. The lap belt should lie low across the hips, and the buckle should be easy to reach without twisting the webbing. Move the seat through its full range of travel to make sure the bracket does not hit the seat track or frame. Check underneath before drilling any new holes so you do not damage fuel lines, brake lines or wiring. Tighten all bolts securely and recheck them after a short drive. If you are not confident about the strength of the mounting location, ask a qualified shop to inspect it.
A Simple Upgrade
A buckle that sits in the right place makes a car more pleasant to drive every day and encourages everyone to buckle up. For a small part, an angled extension bracket can make a big difference to comfort and safety.
