Just after recommendations for retractable seat belts in an LC.
I had them in my previous LC but there were issues with the seats because they couldn't go back fully anymore.
Is there a particular brand or model that avoids this? Or is it something we have to live with?
I've noticed that my front passenger belt is frayed so I thought it might be a good time to upgrade to retractables.
Thanks in advance.

Change seats
Use some that have the belt incorporated in the seat
i.e Range Rover
That way you don't have to drill holes to mount belts and they stay where they need to be

Yeah, I'm trying to keep it simple and cheap though.
Not that these seatbelts are cheap, but I don't think you can skimp on stuff like that.

It really depends at the moment. Got some other things in the works but we'll see what happens.
I'm hoping to take my kids cruising with me, so if I get some I will most likely buy new.
When it comes to safety and kids you can't muck about.

Bummer, now I have to make a decision
Seriously though, can I ask what the Klippan's cost you?
At this stage functionality and cost is probably more important to me than period correctness on this car.

I just need a one for the passenger side really, I've noticed it is pretty badly frayed.
Its not that urgent, there is other stuff it needs done to it, and if things go to plan I will be moving it on anyway.
Thanks for the offer though, I may take you up on it.

Can't quote exactly, pretty sure about $70-$80 a belt?
