Anyone got an extra lower seat belt latch(??), the part that comes up through the seat.
Mine has an issue, makes 3 times now I've litteraly been trapped in the seat because the latch won't release without a fight.

May try the WD40, for now I just swapped it over to the passeger side. Let the wife fight to get out ;)

Mine are 28 year old faded maroon, probably the worst looking part of my interior. If I ever come up with some buckets, I'll swap out the whole set.

The rear seat belts from an '85ish Trooper have the right latch pattern for the stock belt, but are about 4 inches shorter. That's what I've got in the '79 now. Mine were actually broken and missing pieces..

I haven't confirmed it yet, but it also looks like mid 80's S10/S10 Blazers may work. They look about the right length and they even come in a hideous maroon color... :wink:

I got a tan set. Driver's side. Send me an e-mail if you want it. It came out of my '78 after I swapped it for a '79. I found out that the seat belts were not the same, so you need the whole set to match the latches. I can photograph it for ya if ya want.

Yes. I've done the whole "piece together a set of belts" myself, and I don't know what years, but some buckles and some latches do not match and will not work together. Try to get a complete set so you know it will work. BTW, I'm talking factory LUV belts.
