Blue seat belts
I am restoring the interior, blue carpet, blue zebra fabric, and am in need of blue seat belt receivers. All of mine are quite damaged. I've found lots of grey ones on eBay but very few blue. Any suggestions?

Re: Blue seat belts
Second Seatbeltplanet recommendation that bk2life made.
I sent my original front seatbelts to them for re-web service, in dark blue. They came out great! You can order for free little bits of webbing to get the correct color.
It is not cheap. $485 for the fronts (who rides in the back?), but they came back re-webbed and more importantly in working order, as the seatbelts have to pass safety inspection. The ones I sent them, post re-web failed safety, at their cost (not mine), they got another set of seat belts (ebay or whomever), re-webbed again, and past inspection. They even made sure to use my original blue plastic covers.

Re: Blue seat belts
Unfortunately they only sell complete seat belt assemblies, meaning the receiver as well as the belt itself. They said that since they are manufactured, and not OEM, the male ends don't fit in the OEM receivers.
My car is one of those aftermarket convertibles, and the seat belts would be almost impossible to remove. I checked Hawks as well, and Bruce was super kind and flummoxed as they have all the colors but blue. It was a 1984 special, and so not very common at all

Re: Blue seat belts
Can you send pics? How much would you want for the female ends? I assume all 3rd gens should have seatbelts that mate up with each other?
