Retractable Seatbelts for KE10

[Corolla92]

Hey all,

Been a while since I've been around here, but I recently picked up a KE10 that I'm working to put back on the road after a number of years gathering dust in the previous owner's shed.

The seatbelts could do with being replaced, and I wouldn't mind putting something more modern in it with a retractable belt.
Has anyone else been down this path before? Is it something I can borrow from another Toyota model, or will I need to get something custom made?

Hi Ben,

              Remembered there was a discussion on this subject about 12 years ago.

Have read through others thoughts, at that time.

Cheers Banjo

Thanks Banjo, that helps a lot.

It won't help you to learn that retractable belts were actually available in the USA.  i've got one rear NOS belt I located along the way.  I can't see why you couldn't retrofit something from a later model, but you would need to ensure the angle were set up same as in the donor.
