1968 Seatbelt Guides Needed

[Rick L.]

This is for a very early (000329) 68. I am looking for the guide assembly that mounts in the interior of the car and guides the seatbelt. From my research it appears that there were either one or two parts to this assembly in 68.

In the AIM on page H128 you can see these parts picked out as #6 & #7. Apparently #6 is the optional part.

If anybody knows where I can get these I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Rick L.

I don't think there's any way that your car would have used the plates (#6). And, yours would have used the 1st design reinforcements, GM #3926311 and 3926312. These were both discontinued from SERVICE in November, 1970 and replaced by the 2nd design, GM #3943691 and 3943692.

Since the style you need was discontinued almost 40 years ago and the part was "obscure" to begin with, I think the chance of finding NOS is slim. I don't think they are reproduced, either, so your only source is going to be good used. You might try a source like Pacific Corvette.
