This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I have a set for the convertible. They attach to the convertible top frame and the belt slides through the panel (see picture). It attaches to the male side in the front seat.

    Ryans-GSX Have fun, life is short.

    I would think you could make some if you really wanted them. All you would need is the measurement to know how long to make them.

    I wouldn’t want something made up, I’m a purest. And I think there’s some sort of cover for the anchor point and also I would need that plastic piece for the storage on the lower armrest. I saw a picture of them on a car somewhere.

    if I'm correct that was my friend Bob Stillwell's car. He raced it many times in BG before the restoration and he still goes with me there. It had the 700R4 he installed. I bet "Wheelz" would know for sure. Dennis did a lot of the work on that car. I bet he wish he could of gotten that kind of money for it.

    See post 20, holders are over the dealer counter items, not from the factory.

    I had a 71 Skylark Convertible that came with the shoulder harnesses from the Factory.

    The car had a complete set, including the holders. It had so many seat belts it was insane.

    I traded them for two sets of seatbelts, so I had a set for another car.

    My set went into a 71 Zone Car that was being restored.

    I thought I'd seen these in the accessories brochure but just looked @ a few years' brochures on @priariecanary's site (www.gransportstage1.com) & didn't see them so was questioning my earlier post but based on your post obviously they were available.

    I've got a couple sets of the holders in GM packaging. I'll dig them out in the next day or so and post a picture/part numbers.

    I’m always on the lookout for a set of Coupe rear shoulder belts, what a cool option to have. Got any, I’ll buy them!

    I have some nice used holders if anyone is interested in them for a driver/survivor.
