The seat-belts in my El Camino are worn out again. The driver's side get lots of use, and the edges of the webbing is frayed. I replaced them 150,000 miles ago and the damn things wear out. The passenger side is original and has never been replaced. The center belt almost never gets used, and is rolled up under the center arm rest.

There is a local company, just a few miles down the road from me called Seat Belt Planet. The can reweb the old mechanisms, or sell me all new belts and retractors for $100 less. I bet 99.99% of their customers are on-line or mail order. Since they are so close, I just drove over and walked in.

The build everything right there, and have certified seat belt manufacturing on site. If they do a good as a job as I suspect, I will talk to them about the rear seatbelts on my 911. I would like to have the plastic parts replaced in the 911 to make them look better.
