4th gen seatBELTS

They work. At least the front do.....the rear might, but I never tried them. Here's a pic of them with the 4th gen seats.

Brand New from GM for about 300 bucks. There is just one rotating assembly, and the latch assembly is different than the 3rd gen.

Try Scott at http://www.speedautomotive.com

He parts out 4th gens, and has a pretty big stock.

I bought Shannon's 4th gen bird mirrors from him...he's reasonable, and ships fast.
