1953-66 Seat Belts

When installing a seat belt where it was not previously installed or if the factory underbody reinforcement plates are damaged or missing it is suggested that a RB1 underbody reinforcement plate with attached weld nut be used to add support to all of the mounting points.

Webbing colors tend to vary from mill run to mill run therefore a match to upholstery or carpet can not be guaranteed.
