Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!
I just ordered lap only belts from Bairs.  They are not OEM replacements, just functional.  They will do the job for me for now.

I think Flemgunner put some out of a late-model Camaro in his '75. There is a page on his web-site for the info.

I just checked.....apparently its NOT Flemgunner...who was it?
It was Brian(Redwingvette)!Adams' Apple38830.3033101852

Snake-Oyl even transfered my labels from my old belts. They look exactly factory! They do great work! I highly reccomend them!

If you go the F-body route, make sure you get the seatbelts from the rear of a coupe. The verts mount different.

My 72 conv needs new belts, and I want to go with a shoulder harness for safety reasons.  My rear quarter panels need to be replaced anyway, so I can switch those out.  Structurally, are there any mods that need to be made to the car to attach the rear harness?  IF so, how easy/hard will this be? I'm not concerned with show quality, just with safety.
