Refurbishing original seat belts

Post by ValleyMistEK »

As per subject heading, does anyone know of any companies (preferably in Vic) who deal with replacing the sash part of old seat belts?

I have zero interest in replacing my original belts with retractable ones, and have had stuff-all luck locating anyone who deals with making or replacing the original sash-type belts...

Any help appreciated!

These guys may be worth a try

There was also a mob that advertised in rod mags that replaced the seatbelt webbing.

I had looked into the certification process for replacing seat belt webbing and no-one wants to say anything. Suppliers of webbing say to ask the people that advertise, the advertisers won't give any info (must be a cash-cow), Govt Departments and Standards Australia are short on information too.

Thanks stinky - just gave them a call, and they referred me to a mob in Perth who apparently specialise in this sort of thing:

www.seatbeltsolutions.com.au

They're very clear about being licensed to do this sort of job, and have a tonne of different parts as well, for anyone wanting to fit seat belts to a vehicle that doesn't have them.

Well worth checking out for anyone else with seat belt headaches!
