Product Description
The 1974-86 Porsche 911, from the early impact-bumper cars through the Carrera 3.2 era, is a car people love to drive, and its interior gets a lot of use. Front seat belts that are faded, frayed or slow to retract are common after decades on the road. These Seatbelt Planet Driver/Passenger Seat Belts are made to replace both front belts in a 1974-86 911.
What You Get
The listing describes these belts with the following features:
- Made for front seat applications
- Sold as a driver and passenger pair, for two people
- Available in 30 popular webbing colors
- Meets and exceeds Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards 209 and 302
- Mounting hardware is not included
Choose Your Buckle Style
The Buckle Style menu on this page offers two lift latch finishes: a Chrome Lift Latch Buckle and a Lift Latch Black Wrinkle Buckle. A lift latch buckle releases when you lift the cover, which gives a solid, positive feel and a classic look. Chrome adds a bright accent, while the black wrinkle finish is more subdued and blends in with darker interiors. Seatbelt Planet's own page for 1974-88 911 front belts describes a modern end release style, so if you would prefer an end release buckle, contact us before ordering.
Plan for Hardware
Mounting hardware is not included. If your original bolts are in good condition and fit the new end fittings, they can often be reused. If they are corroded or have been replaced with incorrect fasteners, use proper seat belt bolts of the correct grade and thread.
Match Your Interior
The Webbing Color menu offers 30 colors. Black, grey, charcoal and silver suit many 911 interiors, while tan, camel tan, desert tan, medium beige, brown, dark brown and ivory work well with lighter leather. There are also bolder colors such as red, flame red, maroon, red wine, navy, cobalt, electric blue, powder blue, turquoise, dark green, military green, lime green, orange, yellow and purple.
Ordering
Use the quantity menu to order up to four pairs. This is handy for shops or owners with more than one car.
Why Replace the Front Belts
Front belts see daily use and constant sunlight through the windshield. Over time the webbing fades and loses strength, and retractors can weaken. New belts restore reliable function and make a fresh interior look complete.
Installation Tips
The listing notes these belts are easy to install for front seat applications. Before removing the old belts, take photos of the routing and anchor points. Check each anchor for corrosion and clean the threads. Keep the webbing flat and untwisted, tighten every bolt securely and test each retractor and buckle before driving. If you prefer, a qualified shop can install them.
