Just wondering if anyone can tell me if there are different types in the LJ series,as I have large style buckles in my 9/72 LJ XU-1 and I just bought a 4dr Lj mid 73 which has small style buckles in it do they change from year to year or has someone changed the ones in this car.
Regards,
George.

My car is an adelaide built car,So does that mean 72 model adelaide cars have big buckles & brisbane cars have small buckles & all 73 have small buckles.

My 5/73 LJ SL (BLJ23XXXX) had the small buckles definately in the back from factory, but the fronts someone had stuck roll seatbelts in.
My 9/73 LJ S (BLJ30XXXX) was stripped but the seatbelts i found in the boot were all the small buckle type.
Both cars have brown belts.
Maybe it depended on the colour of belt fitted and the interior?

the BLJ does not mean its a brisbane car (it means its a 73 model)
the ALJ is for a 72 car
its the last letter that tells you the factory etc
BLJ123456B = brisbane 73
ALJ123456B= brisbane 72
BLJ123456A= adeliade 73
ALJ123456A= adelaide 72
Do you still have 2 brisbane cars with small buckles?

All lj Brisbane cars are big buckles, Adelaide cars went to small buckle around the time of the orange indicators. Gary.
Adelaide (73 cars atleast) have a big buckle for the rear middle seatbelt, the rest are small ones.

My Adelaide built 1970 low mile LC XU-1 has had Brisbane type buckles from new.
Perhaps Adelaide ran out and had to use different ones until more stock came in ?
Can any body elaborate on this ?
