Don't know if these will work-they might but I doubt it. The ones you want are 93 and newer.

I have not compared the 82-92 Camaro rear seat belts to those of the current body style.

In the photo, the rear seat belt buckles are the short ones on the right. These are almost the exact lenght that C3 buckles were. The 93 and up rear seat belt retractors are almost a bolt in fit for the C3. I think the ones I used had a tab in place that had to be bent flap for them to sit flat on the rear wheel well. The tab is used in the Camaro to position the seat belt in the back.

I dont know how these compare to the 93 and up rear belts. If you can somehow get another viewpoint in a Camaro book, or Chiltons, then it should help decide if they will fit.

Here is what I had to do to put F-body belts on my 73 coupe. They work great.

The seatbelts in mine came out of a 2000 model. You could try looking for firebird seatbelts also on ebay.

Edit: I checked both ways, camaro and firebird, not much to choose from. If you want them now you could check with Billy Graham Camaro Junkyard in Alabama. I am sure they have some. Do a google search for Billy Graham Camaro.
