The most common problem with them is that they get dirty and stiff. It's amazing how nice they become after spending 15 minutes in a bucket full of soap and water. If yours are damaged. I would look for some type 3 or beetle belts. There are lots of places in Hemmings motor news which advertize seat belts and I've always wondered if they could just replace the webbing on our belts. That should be quite reasonable if that's what you need. I would avoid aftermarket belts because you probably won't find ones that fit correctly. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
