Seat belts

[malc4d]

My '73 and '75 both have the belt with the two small receiver type not the stalk type. Are the later belts with the stalks interchangeable ???
Also my '73 has the roller type lap belt (US spec.) and the '75 had no rear belts (EU spec). Did they ever fit roller to the stag here ? (not aftermarket).

the early seat belts with the centre buckle, are not interchangeable with the later stalk type,as far as i know rear seat belts were not fitted new from triumph in the uk
i had my front seat belts re-webbed and new reals fitted

Hi Malc,

There seems to have been at least three or four different style of front belts fitted. My 71-built Stag had a double receiver in the centre and the belt buckle was a single, narrow tongue. Later types also had a double receiver and the buckle had a 'D' shaped tongue. Some had individual receivers with warning light wiring, and some had the stalk type. Then there are the aftermarket Securon belts which have a stalk. Paddocks sell 'OE' seatbelts. I bought some of these to replace the Securon ones fitted by a PO to my 73-built Stag and find them much more comfortable, and they hang on the B-pillar hooks, which the Securon ones don't.

Ah, mine have the two wired receiver type with the B holes on the belt and warning switch in the passenger seats. Even though on the '75 it wasn't connected up to anything just cables under the carpet. ..... I have the new belts with the D holes but they don't work the warning circuit on the '73. So l'm looking at getting the originals rewebbed, but parts of the chrome bits need replacing. Also the '73 (Fed.) has britax retractable lapbelts coming through a slot in the side cubby. (Which l found that the new cubbies from Aldridge have, but are covered up).

Wish I'd had known that's what you wanted Martin, I have some old ratchet straps you could have had for nothing

Thanks Bob & Ian, you both got no taste, I did see some Yellow Cases in Debenhams the other day as I have a dodgy Blue one and one that needs a paint
