3-point Seatbests for GTV rear seats

Can anyone recommend a source or provide lengths for seat belts that will work for the GTV rear seats. I just purchased a nice '74 that is in great shape all around, but no rear belts. I need them for the kids.

I searched the archives and found a great post on the mounting locations, but nothing on sizing or sources.

Thanks. Steve

If you want belts with Alfa logo buckles use 164.

I got some at JC Whitney. They have a pretty good selection. I didn't put 3-pointers on my GTV, but I'm pretty sure they have some of those too. I got the classic airplane style flab buckle. It looks so right in the GTV.

I originally got my 3-Point replacements from World Upholstery. I checked with them and they don't seem to carry seatbelts anymore . This is a good place to start though. Important: Make sure that you get the ones for convertible/hardtop. Or if you want it to say Alfa Romeo on it, I checked most of the internet for them, and I couldn't find any that were direct replacements, but aftermarket replacements. If you really want them to say "Alfa" on them , go the the sale forums, someone might have them. If your car has those annoying 2-point lap belt and the shoulder belt that comes over and latches into the lap belt, get rid of them all at the same time, you'll probably have to take the seats out to get the rear seat out(to install seatbelts). Now knowing the 105 chassis, there isn't a lot of room in the back seat for passengers. I hope your rear passengers have very thin legs! Any way, I'm considering taking mine out. If I take mine out, I'll offer them to you first if you haven't already gotten some.
