Need plastic seat belt supports....

Dont know what the official part name, but Im talking about the plastic supports that hold the seat belt recepticles up so they dont droop/fall between the seats. I dont want to buy them right this moment, so dont go rummaging through your garage tonight, but Id like a reference on where I can get them in the near future. I need medium grey. Heres my interior, see the problem? LOL Ive not found anything on ebay, probably because other than seat belts, Im not sure what to do a search for.

Just found one on ebay, $42 for just one passenger side--first one Ive seen on there lately. For that price, I'll wait....

I call it a seatbelt receiver. I was able to find most of mine at junkyards, with the exception of the front passenger that I had to buy from a member here. I think I spent around $25 on it.

$25 is not bad, I might give that for one. Its on the list, I'll start snooping a little more seriously when I come to it.

If you dont care 100% about being original, the receivers from a 96-2002 cavalier or sunfire (and maybe several other GM cars) work great, and the parts yards are over flowing with those

Really? Thats very helpful! I may do that for functionality, and keep the originals stashed if I ever want/need them. Thx!

Re: Need plastic seat belt supports....

If you wanna get a replacement female buckle reciever and support sleeves
on the cheap check out your local pic a part yard!
Almost any late 70s to late 80s GM reciever will be the same size and length.

I needed a new female reciever and sleeve for my 84. I found a couple sets
from a late 70s Cutlass and a mid 80s buick (for a buds Z). Cost $10 bucks.

Sure the buckles were nice METAL with the Fisher body coach on them instead
of the plastic POS that came factory on our Zs but they were the correct length
and worked with the existing male ends on our factory belt setup.
Simple bolt in swap!!!!!!!!!!!!!
