WTB: S1/S2 Kangol Seatbelts
« on: Saturday,March 15, 2025, 03:51:46 AM »
I need to find the correct seatbelts for my S1. As I know, they were sourced from Kangol and I would like to ask if someone here would offer a pair for sale?

Maybe I need to collect all the needed parts seperately and give them to a specialist for rewebbing afterwards, but then I would need to know if the needed parts are available. The buckles can be found in ebay and the Lotus-stickers are available, but how about the bolt-in-conntections to the car?

Thank you!

I think I have a lot of the metallic bits, definitely those upper clevis bolts and a few others if you're okay going down the path of making up your own belts. Will dig around in the car, my S1B original belts are completely rotted out and I felt safer replacing everything.

I ultimately found one of those bottom bolts, and both of the square head and cross drilled upper bolts if you want them. Belts and their brackets in the car weren't original at all.

I've found a NOS set on Ebay UK so it may be worth to have a look over there.

Nice. I bet they're not cheap.

Yes, not cheap: 620 GBP plus shipping plus tax
