Hello,
I bought a 68 911T that had no seat belts installed. Before delivery, the dealer installed standard, non-retractable 3-point seat belts to the driver and passenger sides (using mounting points near the rear seats - on the wheelarch mound). Whilst OK for the passenger, as the drivers seat has to be fully back before you can fit behind the belt, not-so-tall drivers, like my wife, can not wear the belt and reach the foot pedals. Racing harnesses would be the normal alternative but they are illegal in my country (France). Can anyone suggest a vendor who sells extended 3-point seat-belts either fixed or retractable (my wife would be very happy as she would then be able to drive the car safely). Thanks in advance, Warren. |

Hi Warren,
Check out: http://www.peparts.com/ I have no experience with them, but have seen them advertise in Pano and other p-car magazines for years. Cheers.

Does anyone make the old style belts that you tighten the lap belt yourself and also has a retractable sholder strap.
I don't mind my 3 point stock belts in my SC, but I remember my first car 1970 pontiac and my jeep where you could actually strap yourself in.

Thanks all for your replies (this is a great community!) . I contacted PEP to see if they can help and am waiting for a response.
