Paul,

I bought some 3 point belts from seatbeltsplus.com that I am getting 
ready to install. They are not retractable but they do have some that 
are. They have 2 point retractable belts starting at $50 I don't know if 
there is enough room for the retractor mechanism in a Roadster. I moved 
my seats back as far as I could, so they won't fit my car. The only 
problem I see with them is that the mounting holes are 1/2", while the 
Roadster bolts are 7/16". This shouldn't be  problem, but I may look for 
some plastic shoulder washers to make up the difference.


Peace,

Pat
