Hi

Seat belt webbing can be purchased but NOT for re doing seatbelts...

Highly illegal...

Seat belts need to have the tag on the bottom AS standards..

I had a trampoline type dog bead for a large dog strengthened years ago at a canvas repair shop and they used seatbelt webbing..

Seatbelt webbing is now soft and supple and can be damaged easily..

in the 70s- 80s it was harder and much tougher and nearly impossible to damage..

so Yours was cut?? or was a new type of softer belt??

so, its possible to buy the webbing but You will never find anyone who will stitch it for You...

They may use the webbing on boats?? or canvas repairs??
maybe horse blankets?? totally guesses..

cheers

thats a good price. Look up seat belts on flebay for any car and they often be more than that and you don't know where they are made of even if they are legal?
