Seat help?
I have an 86 camaro but the interior was swapped out from a different camaro. I bought red seat belts for it but I still need a belt guide. Can anyone tell me what year the seats are from? Or what belt guide I need? Not really sure what to do about it.

Re: Seat help?
That looks like the 88 - 92 upholstery design, but the belt guide impression and holes looks like what I thought was the 93+ belt guide. Like this one here

Didn't know they put any of those on the 3rd gen seats.

Re: Seat help?
The only other guide I've seen used on the 82 and up camaros is this one
http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/ca...guidegray.aspx
But that one only has one screw where yours has spots for two.

Re: Seat help?
Hmm I'm not sure then, haven't seen that style in place before that you linked. I have ones like the second link but mine have a single screw on the outside, no screw on the inside.

Re: Seat help?
All the seat belt guides attach to all the seats - so pick the one you like.
My 1990 had these on it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SEAT-...Q5fAccessories
I replaced with these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/82-92...Q5fAccessories
My 1992 Camaro had these on it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SEAT-...Q5fAccessories
I replaced with these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/82-92...Q5fAccessories
My 1997 Camaro had these on it: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FIREB...Q5fAccessories
I replaced with these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SEAT-...Q5fAccessories
The 1997 is the wife's car, she's short, and likes the lower option of the "two hole" piece. I even turned them upside down and swapped sides so they were a bit lower.
SO ... in the end, ALL the 3rd gen and 4th gen seat belt guides ALL use the same hole pattern and ALL interchange.

Re: Seat help?
I would bet on the double loop style from 90-92 also. However find a style that suits you and use then. The 82 seats I have actually used the 78-81 triangular style loop original. I have found pictures of a few 'birds on here with the triangle style loop original.
