Seat Belt Help

[1969 beep beep]

Can someone please post a picture how the shoulder belts in a 69 Roadrunner are held up when not in use. Once I clip them into the visor area how does the slack of the belt stay up. I have the elastic portion with the button, but I can't see how this works unless I am missing something.

I think midpenmopar(Stu) is a member here. I asked him to shoot a pic of his car.

I use a large paper clip to hold up what tightening the belt will not hold up.

We carry the correct clips if you need them

69beep- the elastic wears out, I do what "ranger" does.

Large paper clip here too. Looks classy!

Yep unless you get new belts that elastic is gonna be stretched. Even my new ones the elastic is stretched a little bit but hold the shoulder belts tight enough that you can't see the belts. Before I replaced the belts I used a couple guitar capos that snapped on.

40 yr.old elastic; what do you expect,LOL. Bra's don't last near that long!

 

[eagleone1983]

Neither do the things they are supposed to hold

 

[oldbee]

Gooood one. First-hand knowledge is hell isn't it?

 

[oldbee]

Begs the question- if there is less support needed, do bra's last longer?

 

[eagleone1983]

Not yet, my wife's only 29. I still got a few years left

 

[oldbee]

+++++++++++++++++1. Nothing further needs to be said lol.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Looks like the elastics are double the length from being stretched over the years.

 

[dart4forte]

Do the elastic correctly or paint the paperclip black and call it good.

I sent my belts to a guy out west (USA) - he posts on Moparts. He replaced just the elastics and snaps for something like $20. and I had them back in a week!

 

[dart4forte]

I have the elastic and the snaps. I can ship them to you and you can have your upholstery sew them on. Problem solved.
