convertible seat belts....or can i dye them?

Anyone know if the front seatbelts of a convertible are the same as a coupe? Where might i be able to find the rear belts? Can the ones that I have be dyed? If so, how...that's what i would prefer to do.

I tried dying red ones to black, wouldn't work. The red just kept bleeding through. I also noticed that I let them sit inside for about six months and when I took them out of the box, all the areas that were stiched(were they fold the belt over the metal clip) would just fall apart, I can't say for sure, but I think the dye screwed up the thread. All in all, I say buy new ones or try to find them at the boneyards.
