I just bought new front seatbelts from Blunt for $85.50 each. Don't know about the rear belts.

Here is a link to the seatbelts from Blunt:  https://www.blunttech.com/products/13333853

 

Jnaumshelter,

How have you liked these new belts? They are the made in China version, right? Do you feel like they retract and latch as well as other new car belts?

 

Thanks,

Paul

Paul,

The belts retract and latch great. I got a little confused during installation because the retractor was catching and I couldn't get the belt out to install it. After a little thinking, I realized the retractor must be level & in the upright position or it won't retract. That's how it works. Anyway, I am happy with the look and operation of them.

i always love supporting shops on this forum when possible ... 

but curious if the belts found here are any better/worse than bluedevils or the blunt-tech kit?

these kits look decent enough ... 

 

 

once i received my e21 fronts and e24 rear buckets ...
i'm hoping to do something like this for the fronts (space permitting with the rear buckets)

and

i'm hoping to install 3-point belts in the back like miked2002 (thru the parcel shelf and the mechanism in the trunk)

 

 

 

cheers
