Customized Seat Belts

I am looking for a set of seat belts that I can customize. I am looking for something like these Beams, but retractable for the door belts. I saw a set of custom belts that someone on here did in the project builds and thought that would be cool as hell to have my own custom belts. I tuck mine in as far as I can right now. They were such a nasty, mold stained, blue looking green belts that I tried to dye them black. They just look like an ugly gloss brown now. So, if I can find a set of these in a retractable, I will be laser etching a logo, skulls, unicorn, a phrase, or something that just makes them mine. Any help will be appreciated.

Just kidding about the unicorn.

I would think they would, just do some measuring for proper lenth.

Re: Customized Seat Belts

I found that website yesterday. Those are exactly what I am looking for. They do have a retractable 2-point lap belt, but I am not paying $75 each for a pair. I was thinking about using a pair of these, but not sure if it will keep the belt out of the door. http://www.seatbeltsplus.com/mm5/mer...Store_Code=sbp. Has anyone used any of these retractors before? They say they only retract a foot of webbing. Which might not be enough.

Re: Customized Seat Belts

These are the retractables. http://www.seatbeltsplus.com/mm5/mer...able-Seatbelts. I was wrong, they are $47 each, but the buckle webbing is too short. It is only 19". I don't know. I might find a way to do the 60" non retractables in my originals. Or just find a short end that will hang out of the plastic on the originals and get the longer buckle end to wrap over. Retractable would be nice, but not always necessary. Thanks guys.

On the web site they have buckles of different lengths. I would call them and see if they can set you up with what you need.
