self-retracting seat belts

I need a pair of self-retracting seat belts. However, I'd like to find some that don't get tighter and tighter as I'm driving. You all know what I mean.

Any suggestions?

I got some out of of a junked truck - '96 Chevy truck.
However if you are already using a 3pt harness, be aware that a wrong angle of the reel on floor may be making it tighten up as you drive

I bought a set from LMC. Lap and shoulder in one. I guess that's called 3-point? They use an inertial reel, so you have to pull them out slowly, but they don't cinch up ma.

Thanks for the responses. The pair I had in my 82 truck may have had the inertia reel angled forward, which could have created the problem.:rolleyes:
