I just can't get myself to modify my 93LE seat belts. I think I should sell them and get some standard black belts. Oh, atank, wanna make a trade?
I wouldn't sell them. Just put them away and get a decent set of black.

Well I made a poor attempt at this today and cut my belt. So I stopped right there and said I need this untill I can find a replacement. Anyone know where I can purchase a drivers side belt for a 93 miata black. Without this ripstop in it. If not my second option is to just replace it with another one. Either way has got to be safer than what I have now.
I am guessing you need black???? I will check this weekend and see what I have

Duct tape fixes everything.
How about having an upholsterer ran a criss-cross stitch over that fold (Rip Stop)? That should permanently sew it into place. Cheaper and safer resolve you think?
Yea I dont know yet what im gonna do I just want to get a replacement. It is black yes. And pm if you got one with a price. Its gonna be a pain in the ass to remove and install. Friggan roll bar and seats in the way.
get a replacement belt, check with the sponsors and members classifieds ads. Use an Xact-O blade and take your time!
I cut off that outer sleeve no problem and got to the point where it looks like a 4inch fold and has about 50+ stitches. I tried seperating and got about a 1/4 of the way down and blade slipped and cut the belt. No good now and dont think im willing to attempt that again so just gonna replace the belt. Atank gonna look in his pile of parts and see if he has a replacement.
I took pictures while my son Colin did the work. His young eyes can see little things better than my old eyes. Yeah, that's why I had him do the work ;)
Start by cutting the bottom of the sleeve
So many stitches to remove!
Better get started
Some progress
Oh noes!!
And done
I kept reminding Colin to go slow and be careful. He did a great job Now to get the black belts in the car and put the red belts in storage.
