seat belts from breakers yard?

Felt guilty clicking the 'New topic' button as I know there are loads of posts on the seat belt subject. Have been looking through the archive for a few nights now but can't find any mention of rear 3 point seat belts from a donor vehicle. I'm hoping to fit my Devon R & R bed this coming bank holiday weekend and I am currently working near a scrap yard in Glossop. Using the existing threaded mounting points the bed seems a long way away when in seat configuration. I know you can't put a price on safety but new belts are not cheap. I'm wondering if belts from a people carrier or transit van or truck would reach ? if I find some they could perhaps go on the wiki for future referance

Absolutely. You're far more likely to find some good ones is a scrap yard as modern cars end up there long before the belts creak their last.

Hi covkid

any suggestions for donor vehicle types?

Not really but likely to be larger vehicles.

got some virtually unused ones on a late velle, inertia reel laps.
