Where can I get these?

Post by KS »

Planning on making provision a crotch strap on my new driver's seat and am trying to track down a source of what are being referred to as 'seat belt grommets'. I've found two places in the USA selling them but can't believe there's not a source over here:

Any ideas? Or anyone with a scrap seat from which one (or rather, both parts of the pair) can be salvaged?

This is the mod:

No, the ones they sell are for Sparco seats, which are thinner...

Worth also trying Corbeau - according to another forum (Lotus) they have them but not shown/listed on their website:

Our glorious leader hates to disappoint.
For me the only real surprise is that it took 18 hours before anyone did a KS crotch joke.
Just off to buff something, make up your own innuendo.
