Mercedes W111 rear Kangol 2 point seat belts
« on: May 21, 2018, 00:22:04 »
Hi.
I am looking for either a complete or partial set of rear 2 point Kangol seat belts for my friend's 1968 280se coupe.
I am also looking for the mounting bolts and spacers.
I believe but am not 100% certain that the rear 2 point seatbelts for these cars had retractable rolls on them.
Please contact if you might have any or all of these parts.
Many Thanks in advance.

I have many of the parts.  I don't have complete belts because people seldom want the rear lap belts.  The anchor at the floor is different (90 degree bend) from the anchors for the front belts.  The retractable rolls are after-market and found on lots of older cars.  They are kind of cool but not necessary to be correct.

Peter,

If you are interested, I can send you a pic of my rear belts. My car came with the three point front belts and the rear had the roll up type but are original with the Kangol label. I don't have a pic of how they are mounted though. One day soon I will remove my back seat to get at the rear side windows. I could take a pic at that time if you can wait.

Peter might want to check and see if the floor anchors are already in his friend's coupe.  For that matter, it wouldn't be unusual to find the old seat belts under the seat.

Thank you for the replies.

I am down to looking for the following:

2 rear Kangol KL2 series complete buckles with strap

1 rear chrome clip and strap. Would like to find one with the retractor if possible but not required.

Essentially I have 1 complete 2 piece set for 1 person and am missing the Plastic Buckle side for the other rear seat.

Also missing another 2 piece set for the 3rd middle section.

Getting close.

I have all of the buckles and clips that you can imagine.  But the straps, no.  Best to have those re-done anyway.  Do you have the floor anchors?
