it is hard to find seat belts now days, i think its illegal now to sell second hand seat belts, doubt any wreckers would have any anymore (not the ones i've asked anyways)

just get them repaired - i have the same prob with my rear seat belts in my HT - im sending mine to 'seatbelt solutions' in perth so i can still use the same buckles - but there is a place in vic called 'hemco' as well, another place i was told of by the local auto pro was 'Kiplin' (spelling?) all i have is a phone number no dea where they are though (1800 804 588) -- maybe you could find a place closer to home as well


at the end of the day - seatbelts save lives, IMO i'd get new straps on your buckles, just for piece of mind

Klippan K1512 will fit. You must use a small piece of flat bar with a slight bend to mount the reel in a vertical position.

Autoliv actually supply seatbelts to to vehicle industry, I know they do Toyota , I have been to Autoliv in Cambellfield. They do aftermarket as well.
