Don't know about aftermarket, but many of us have fitted late model Camaro rear belts to our cars.

I just bought NOS 78-82 corvette 3 point seatbelts from this guy on Ebay for $100 cheaper than aftermarket. He has quite a stock of many colors. I installed them no problems. Ike

Contact Seatbelt Solutions. They will make a complete set including the shoulder harness for much less than anyone else. They can match your interior color.

I put in 2001 Firebird seat belts. New tehnology and it bolts right in. I would never go back to anything close to original if I drove the car on the streets with todays SUV's and wild, road rage driving. Just my $0.02
