I just picked up a set of rear seat belt slot covers and I notice that the ones I have are not as wide as the slot, they fit be not exactly right. I'm wondering if there are a difference in years. My rear panels are out of a '72 Comet....and idea? Don O.
I'll take a picture today when I get home. I'm also wrong about the rear panels....they came from a '73 LDO Maverick...not a Comet...my black interior is from the Comet...duh....too many parts to keep track of. Can you measure a slot in a panel and give me the dimensions Craig? Thanks, Don.
Positive, the '73 is sitting in my mothers garage and it's a 2 door bucket car and these seem to be the original panels from that car.
Member here hooked me up with them. If you go to www.flickr.com/osborne33 you can see the rear panels without the covers. They don't appear to be altered. My old panels didn't have a slot so I have nothing to compare them too. It would be the interior swap photo's.......which I can't even view here at work...sucks.
make sure you put the slot covers in correctly. they only go in one way (I think). You could have the upside down??
Maybe I am not sure what you are talking about. I looked at the pictures....and everything looked O.K.
Thanks Joe, have to measure them today. Kid had the car when I got home from work and got back just about the time I was going to bed. Ok....slots are 1 x 3 in my panels. Here's my problem...the covers can move side to side alot and then the slot shows. see pictures
Do the ones in my pictures seem like the correct part? I might have to dig thru the parts car and see if I can locate the original ones. The PS cover fits the best and the DS one will almost fall thru the slot if I mess with it much. It doesn't snap in very tight. Both sides are loose side to side. Not that big of a deal since I don't sit back there and this isn't a show car by any means...just wish they fit better. And this is no slam of the member I got them from. Rather have these than no cover.
