Chevrolet Corvette replacement seat belts

The Chevrolet Corvette's is a sports car first manufactured by Chevrolet in 1953 and is built today exclusively at a General Motors assembly plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky. It was the first all-American sports car built by an American car manufacturer.

The car is widely regarded as a "poor man's supercar", although this description is intended to be complimentary. Corvettes have a long history of melding exceptional handling and brutal amounts of engine power into an affordable package that is drastically less expensive than prestigious marques with similar abilities. This has understandably led to some scorn of the Corvette by owners of such competing marques, with most of the criticism being aimed at the Corvette's level of refinement. Older generations of Corvettes have been criticized for being brutish when compared to European sports cars, although the C5 and C6 generations seem to have silenced all but the most strident of such critics.

Corvettes tend to emphasize simplicity over technical complexity when it comes to engine power. Where nearly all competing marques rely on smaller-displacement engines with complex, double overhead cams (DOHC), variable valve timing (VVT), four- and five-valve heads, or turbochargers, Corvettes instead relies on US muscle.  

This fact leads the Corvettes to be a prime target for aftermarket upgrades. There are a plethora of parts that have been made exclusively for the Corvettes.  One such part is the replacement seat belts.

Seat belts have been in Corvettes since the C1. While we all have our opinions about whether or not we like to wear  seat belts, many owners have to install them if they want their car to be correct. Since seat belts use is now a federal law, many of us may install them for that reason alone. Whether or not the car originally came from the factory with seat belts, if you do decide to install them, you might as well install the correct set that's applicable to your car, as the designs have changed drastically over the years.
