Lift Lever Lap Seat Belt 2 or 3 inch Width

Will These SeatBelts Work for My Car Without Having to Retrofit?

Our seat belts are Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) #209 & #302 approved; meaning that they are the safest seatbelts available and they are universal fit aftermarket restraints. If you are replacing existing belts with the same type of belt (example: lap belt for a lap belt), then these belts should work perfectly and replacement will probably be accomplished within minutes. (Just be sure to measure your existing straps, so that you order the correct length). If there are no existing seatbelts in your car, it is possible that there are anchorage points (threaded holes) existing in your car, but no belts. You need to check to see if these anchorage points are present and if so, there should be no problem.

Important: If the necessary anchorage points are NOT present, then proper anchorage points must be safely added before installation.

Here is a brief history of what years anchorage points were added to U.S. automobiles: Most U.S. passenger cars, beginning with 1962 models, have seat belt anchorages for at least 2 lap belts in the front seat, but not all autos. Starting in 1964, all U.S. cars were manufactured with seat belt anchorages for at least two lap belts in the front seat. Since January 1968, U.S. passenger car and light truck manufacturers have been required to install lap belt and shoulder belt anchorages at each front "outboard" (driver side and passenger side, not middle) seating position (except convertibles) as well as lap belt anchorages at all other seating positions. Since 1/1/72, this same requirement became effective for trucks. In 1986, GM began phasing in 3 point (lap belts with shoulder restraints) for the rear outboard seats of their vehicles and the other major U.S. manufacturers followed suit over the next 3-4 years.
