Mentioned this once before, but it's worth repeating. Needed 3 point belts
for the longest time for my '73 GT6. It origionally came with them but had
been removed by the previous owner. I had gotten non-retracable belts from
another GT6, but still wanted the retractable type. After years of looking
for Triumph belts I gave up and started looking for alternatives during my
trips to the pick and pull yards. I found some belts from a late model RX7
that fit perfectly and were like brand new. $12 for the pair. If you're
going from 2 point to 3 point, you'll have to make a hole as someone
described below.

What _are_ the options for 3-point belts for early TR6's? (1970)
I have stock lap belts, and I feel quite aware that in a significant accident
my tall upper body is likely to become better acquainted with the windshield
and it's frame (even worse).
