    Seat belt options for a MK1.

    Hi all.

    I was wondering what options there are for seat belts currently.

    I have a MK1 with Astra coupe seats (the buckle is bolted to the seat rail which i'd like to keep if possible).

    Are there any Vauxhall/Opel belts that will bolt up to the escort positions without care?

    I want to avoid pre-tensioners (removed from the seats) and any over complicated crap.

    My Escort ones don't recall and look like mice have knawed at them.

    Thanks for any advice

    Would have thought the Astra belts use similar fixing points at the top and bottom of the B pillar, unless the lower one is a loop fixed to a rail. If you want to keep the Astra buckle, then you may be able to adapt the Astra belts to fit as well,but im not sure what they look like regarding fixing points. Its normally the buckles on the seat that are pre-tensioned to pull the belts tight in an accident.
