The Austin Healey Sprite, spanning 1958 to 1971, is a legend in affordable sports car history. From the charming "Bugeye" MkI with its signature pop-up headlights to the polished MkIV models, the Sprite captivates with its featherweight design, razor-sharp handling, and engines that evolved from the enthusiastic 948cc to the spirited 1275cc. These cars excel in everything from twisty backroad blasts and vintage rallies to concours displays and casual top-down cruises. Yet, many Sprites rolled out of the factory with minimal—or no—seat belt provisions, leaving modern owners seeking reliable protection that honors the car's vintage soul.

This Seatbelt Planet lap belt rises to the occasion with a classic push button buckle that's both user-friendly and period-authentic. The chrome-plated push button mechanism provides a firm, reassuring click for secure latching, releasing effortlessly when needed—perfect for quick exits at shows or easy operation during drives. As a 2-point non-retractable design, it delivers dependable lap restraint tailored to the Sprite's snug bucket seats and open cockpit environment. The high-quality webbing is engineered for longevity: strong, fade-resistant, and offered in a variety of colors to seamlessly match or accent your interior—timeless black for subtlety, vibrant reds or blues for personality, and more.

Chrome-plated end fittings add a touch of elegance that complements the Sprite's brightwork and chrome accents, ensuring the belt looks like it belongs rather than an obvious modern add-on. Installation is straightforward and owner-friendly: the kit includes hardware for bolting to the floor pans, utilizing existing points or simple additions with no invasive modifications required. Once in place, the adjustable straps offer a comfortable, customizable fit for drivers and passengers alike, supporting spirited driving without discomfort.

Seatbelt Planet constructs these belts to meet or exceed FMVSS 209 and 302 standards, guaranteeing superior strength, durability, and flame resistance for true peace of mind on today's roads. Owners appreciate the vintage-correct styling combined with modern reliability—the belt enhances safety without detracting from the car's authentic character or concours appeal.
