Re: [Chrysler300] Seat belts for a G

[Kraus300@xxxxxxxxxxx]

One sources for the lap belts is-

http://wescoperformance.stores.yahoo.net/seatbelts.html

I've purchased from them and they are fine. Their hardware kits and some of the belts were priced significantly cheaper than Andover Auto. 

An article about retrofitting belts and a link to Andover Auto-

http://simplexco.com/auto/cbelt/index.html

Andover does have a better selection.

You'll notice that it gets a little confusing on the sites comparing the webbing, buckles and hardware. A little work will get you good stuff.
