Have you tried these? How was the fit? Are they easy to live with?

I considered those for my car. I had stock, early belts in my '71. I saw a photo of the ones you referenced, installed, and decided against them; looked too bulky.

I have them installed. My wife and I like the fact that they can retract. Sometimes you have to help them a bit going back in. The top portion is bulky but we can live with that.
There is a plastic cap that covers the bolt that attach it to the car but I have a hard time keeping it close. Not a perfect product, but it solved what we wanted to solve which was the non-retractable belt. |

I have seen those also, the Pumpkin is a 70 and is stock also, I had my belts re-webbed by seat belt planet. I am happy with them.

Any one have a picture of these installed? @Cairo94507 when you say bulky did you find yourself hitting your head on them or just aesthetically bulky? It seems like a good solution for me, but not if they get in the way.
Thanks All, Peter |

Sorry, I looked at pictures of them installed and decided it was not for me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
