A couple of questions. Is there a saddle color? Or is the tan the closest color? And will the shoulder belt retractor fit under the stock rear interior panel covers?

My belts came in about a week ago.
The buckle receiver fits perfectly into the original sheath. The male buckle looks exactly like the factory piece.
The saddle color is closer to gold. It doesn't look bad against my dark saddle interior.
As mentioned, there is no provisions for the factory indicator switch.
The bolt holes are a little small. I'm still debating how I want to address this. I really hate to modify the seat belt attachment points.

Not sure if best to ask here but for someone that has a 73 I do not want the double peice (1 for lap and 2nd that attachs for shoulder).
Will a set from 74 (single peice shoulder/lap belt) work?

I just opened my set of these new belts (dual retractor) for my 72. I have to say, as others have, that the quality looks top notch to me. I am very pleased with them. Certainly for the price.
I am also happy that the shoulder belt is much longer than the stock one. As I'm 6' 2" tall, I could never reach the dash if I used the stock shoulder belt. It was to short. I always just used the lap belt. This will help stop my wife from commenting about it.

Got around to installing my set of these belts today. In the end they look and work great. My only bitch is that, as others here have noted, the mounting holes are to small. I had to redrill all the belt mounting plate holes except for the short seat belt at the consul. Still worth the purchase IMHO. Be prepared to alter them though.

I am building a 73 for a customer and would prefer the one piece style.
If I order for a 1974 will these be the one piece style?
Thanks in advance
