Install Stock Seatbelt buckle on Sparco Sprint V

Looking for some help, got a sparco sprint V seat in my car and im looking to use the stock seatbelt for the time being, anyone have a way to attach the stock seatbelt buckle onto the side of the seat, or a kit that allows this to be done. Many thanks in advance!

Don't think you can do that. What's the issue you have now, the right or the left side?

Driver Seat, only 1 seat in the whole car. Building it for stock turbo record, just need to be able to drive it for a little untill i can get harness and harness bar in spring for racing.

depending on how stout your seat bracket is... use a heavy piece of metal mounted to the r r of the bracket bent around to about where your seat belt mounted.

How about something like this till you get the cage in? Then sell it.

Maybe but i dont have a harness bar in the car yet for the quick release pin setup you have on that belt. i think i came up with a idea on this quick temp fix to run the stock buckle. Should have pics up tomorrow or this weekend.

That rear part attaches to a rear seat belt attachment point.

Really this is very interesting how much do they go for. and i dont have rear seats anymore so it would be a 2 min. install. Sorry i thought the belt only was long enough for a harness bar. no offense or insult intended. thanks for the tip!

You can pick them up for about $150 new and Sparco sells them for a bit less.

Didn't realize you couldn't use the stock seat belts with that seat. I was able to use the stock seat with my NRG seats. Will you still be running the center console in your car or no? If not take the seat belt bracket & bend is in like an L shape bracket & bolt it to spot where the back seat bracket bolts to the floor under the center console. Sounds like it would work in my head, haha...Do you know what I'm trying to say?

I get what your saying, but the bolt hole that goes into the Sparco seat on the side is way to small for the bolt that the stock seatbelt uses. Its like 0 vs 0. lol couldnt think of a better way to type it. And no center console BJ you know my car is completely gutted

Find a parachute company near you, they can modify any seat belt setup for you. They can change ends on as well as change the lengths of belts for you.
