What's wrong with yours? If its just discoloration, you can paint them. I've done this many times with amazing results using SEM or Color Bond dye.

And it ws a good post

Harold Holbrook · 06-29-2021, 01:43 PM

I just sent my parchment seat belts to Ssnake Oyl. I am missing the 4 boot covers that goes behind the back seat. Any color any amount would be appreciated.

**YellowK5** · 07-02-2021, 06:10 PM

Excellent! Steve (our rep)is a good guy and takes great care of us

**72ironmike** · 07-03-2021, 06:17 PM

I found pythonrestoration - they polish the buckle covers instead of paint them

I have used ssnakeoyl in the past & was unhappy with color match

Will let all know how they turn out after a couple month turnaround

Here's some examples

Anyone know what the plastic boot is on the one seatbelt circled in yellow ?

Only one of my belts has this & I do not know where I took it off at !

It's the passenger side blazer belt, I would say that's the hardest belt to find!! It goes with the small retractor, next hardest to find.

Harold Holbrook · 07-05-2021, 10:48 AM

I had that on one of mine. Ask Ssnake- Oyl to install it on the other side. I thought it was to keep the belt from sliding down between the seat and the consul.

**72ironmike** · 07-06-2021, 10:23 AM

Harold, I lucked out and found my belt boots. If you do not find any you might look for some longer ones & cut them down. That is what pythonrestoration.com suggested I might do. I kinda like the look that they will actually cover the bolt head. Good luck. Thank goodness Blazer/Jimmies are worth so much because they are PITA !

Harold Holbrook · 07-06-2021, 08:30 PM

Thanks, Mike I was thinking of doing that and found a original set.

Like a needle in a haystack !

Here's a pic of my original cores "before" !

Harold Holbrook · 07-07-2021, 12:14 PM

Thanks Mike for the pictures.

**72ironmike** · 09-08-2021, 09:10 PM

Here is the after !

Any chance you can share the price for the work?

**lks dcvn** · 09-09-2021, 01:53 PM

^ same question (about cost of the work) as I will probably need to do the same with a set of parchment belts for my blazer project...

SeventyOne · 09-09-2021, 01:54 PM

I used Python a couple years ago as well on my parchment belts. excellent job just took a while.

Fronts are 105 each

Rears 80

Date code tags 10 each if you want them

That is with good core belts
