914 seat belts – condition immaterial

Anyone have a pair of retractable belts from a 914 they don't want? Mine need rewebbing, so am after a pair of belts I can send to get done. Condition of the webbing is immaterial, so cuts, dirt, scuff of no consequence.

Let me know what ya got!

I have the correct 5 panel webbing if you want to stay original Keith.

I do somewhere Keith.
The retractor mechs are shot, but the belts could be useful to you.
Would take some digging though, so let me know if you have no immediate joy and I’ll look when I find time

Hi James - it's actually the retractor part I need! :lol:

Always the way... Thanks anyway.

Hi Keith,

You might want to consider this one:

Finding good quality original used ones is not easy, most of them squeek like a pig...

Thanks but I'm deliberately after old used ones for a reason... :wink:

Keith,

I have not found them yet for free and not sure if you want to go that way, it is your safety!
Here some cheap belts with same reels (almost...) as mounted in the 914.

Thanks - don't worry about the safety aspect! I was after some so I could get them rebuilt with new webbing, not to use as is.

Incidentally, the eBay advert you show says that they will not ship to the UK...

Ok, did not notice that but if they want to sell then they probably will ship outside Germany. Just ask, but if you need any assistance let me know. I am surprised there are not many RePa reels available in the UK. I will check if I have something stashed away. RePa reels were handed up to 1974/5, after that one version with the spring (behind the smaller plastic cap) on the left side. Are you after a set handed?

Cheers,
Cees

Keith,

I have one spare left hand 1972 RePa reel, if that would help.

Regards,
Cees

Hi Cees, Thanks for the offer but I've had a change of plans!

Cheers
