Hi - Looking for a front seat passenger side seat belt (black) for my 72 Duster with a bench seat. It is missing the buckle belt piece that attaches in the center floor. If anyone has this or a pair in good shape let me know.

Also going to replace the headliner, sail panels and package tray soon. Any tricks or guidance for this ? Was going to get the ABS plastic headliner board.

Thanks !

We do seat belts
 
Hi AzDuster,
The key to the ABS headliner is that they need to be trimmed a bit where they slide into the window gasket area. You are better off getting the non-covered versions (less expensive) and then covering yourself once you've done the proper trimming. The best price I've found is RockAuto.com. Often there is a discount for RockAuto on the FBAO discount thread.

Something to keep in mind with 40-something year old seat belts. They may look good, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are still safe. Over time the fibers start to break down and in a high impact situation could rip, even though they look like they are fine. It's your choice obviously, but just wanted to give some information to consider.

Hi - The rest of the seat belts in the car look pretty good for their age so I was hoping to find something used to put back in there.

Don't know if you know Dale or Dean but they have A bodies. In fact Dale has a Duster so he may have a belt laying around.
