Found some seat belts, but wondering what the CORRECT factory OEM bolts & pieces are for correct installation? Any help, suggestions, or PICS are appreciated!

Also, what about DYEING belts a different color?
Who has been successful doing that?
Thanks much, Scott in SC
 
They're 7/16" x 20 thread bolts. You'll need that size tap to chase the holes to clean them up. I'm not sure about the length. I'm trying to remember where I bought my new belts. They weren't that expensive and look great. Easier than dying them to match. I'll do some digging.

Your ride have the holes for bolting in the belts? I installed rear belts and the bolts are grade 8 fine thread. Converted to buckets and the holes were fine for the install. Don't know about dying them; but I've used Herb's interior fabric paint on several areas of mine with good results...wind lace, seat belt boots, sun visors. Belts though might need dying. Check out Herb's as this might be an option. The photo shows the front belts and covers (now are red). I may have more pics and will see if I can locate and post....if you want to see more.
