My attempt at restoring/cleaning a set of seat belts

[Thealien]

My Jimmy originally had a parchment interior. I would ruin a parchment interior so I am slowly changing everything over to black. I had been looking for a set of black seat belts for over a year and am still looking for some pieces/parts (plastic bolt covers for the rear seat seatbelts, Drivers side retractable seat belt, plastic seat belt hangers for console delete trucks. With all that out of the way I was offered these belts by NTR72GMC and I agreed





I recieved them and proceeded to take them apart. I still need a couple of the GM stickers for the pushbutton or the whole pushbutton with sticker attached (anybody have a couple?).

Here is where I started this morning

Here I am cleaning them with simple green and a scrub brush

I removed the tags from all but 2 of the belts. I left those two alone to compare and they were in pretty good shape after cleaning

After cleaning I layed the cleanest belt over the faded belts

Here is the rit dye and the tub I dyed them in
