Default Seat Belt Color (Yellow) Change

My drivers side seatbelt was fraying so I decided to color match it with my brake calipers. One seat took 1 hour from removal, sewing and re-install. I think it looks great. I will do the passenger front when I have more time. Companies charge $75 a belt and I’m doing two for $15.

Shout out to my neighbor for sewing my belts!!!

Thanks everyone for the compliments. Decided to do just the middle one in the back yellow too. Did you all know the buckle in middle is different from all the other buckles?

I've never unwrapped a belt from the reel all the way. What is actually involved in removing the old belt from the mechanism and putting the new one on and winding it back onto the reel?

I would need the whole seatbelt assembly bc I have to sew it on both ends and there are original pieces that need to be put on before being sown together.

I could flip it in a week.

Default Seat belt color and arm rest cover

I am interested in your arm rest cover, as well as color belts. But first, can you walk me through how you put in your push button start? Very curious and very few others done to see how. Did you figure out how to remove the key from the equation?
