First-generation Monte Carlos were personal luxury coupes, but they still had a proper rear bench for two. This kit fits both rear outboard positions in 1970-1973 Monte Carlos using hand-set lap straps and metal button latches.
Where It Fits
Seatbelt Planet lists it for 1970, 1971, 1972 and 1973 Monte Carlos, rear driver side and rear passenger side. The 1973 model began the Colonnade generation, and it is included here as well.
Color Options
Strap colors run to fifty-two, with thirteen premium options. Monte Carlo interiors from these years often came in dark green, black, saddle, blue and burgundy.
Why Replace Old Belts?
The rear seat of a Monte Carlo is mostly used by friends and family on cruises, and old belts are often brittle or buried under the cushion. A new pair makes the back seat usable again.
Care Tips
Lift the belts above the cushion when no one is riding in back. Clean any spots with a lightly damp cloth.
About the Chevrolet Monte Carlo
The Monte Carlo debuted for 1970 on a stretched A-body chassis, with a long hood, a formal roofline and an available SS 454 package. The 1973 redesign introduced the Colonnade body with swivel bucket seats as an option.
Pre-Install Checklist
Remove the rear seat cushion and inspect the outboard anchor points near the wheel wells. Clean the threads and look for any rust.
Good to Know
Hardware is supplied with the kit.
Because the Monte Carlo is a two-door coupe, rear passengers climb in past the front seats. Make sure the belts are tucked neatly so they do not get tangled during entry.
Owners who use the front bench kit can match the rear belts to it for a uniform look.
The all-metal latch closes with a solid feel and releases with a simple press.
Installing the kit is a straightforward job that most owners can complete in about an hour.
SS 454 owners often want every interior detail correct for shows, and fresh belts in a matching color help.
Families who take their Monte Carlo to cruise nights will appreciate having safe rear seats for kids.
The rear center position is not used in most Monte Carlos, so this pair covers the seats that matter.
The 1970-1972 Monte Carlo's rear seat is fairly upright and supportive, while the 1973 car's is softer and more rounded. In both, the outboard lap belts lie neatly across the cushion. Swap the old belts for these when you redo the carpet.
Any of the fifty-two shades can be matched to your front belts, so the Monte Carlo's cabin looks finished from the dash to the package tray.
