Seat belt kit?

[Ben]

Does anyone offer a seat belt kit that has photo etch buckles and plain blue ribbon for the belts? I checked detail master and Model Car Garage but no luck.

A combination of a fabric belt kit and a photo etch buckle kit would work too, if they work together with each other.

I make my seat belts out of masking tape cut to fit the width of the photo-etched hardware, and painted any color that I want them. It works good, try it.

I’d like to have cloth ribbon but I’ll try the tape if I’m not able to locate the ribbon. Thanks!

When people look through the windows or window openings of your model, who's gonna be able to tell if you're using ribbon or not? Maybe if they use a flashlight and or a magnifying glass.

Where do you get the hardware?

Detail Master and Scale Production have sets.

Best bet is get a detail kit from Detail Master, MCG or others and get First Aid paper tape if for a street vehicle.  I lay it on a small piece of glass, cut it and color it.

For a race car, I often use Solder Remover.  It can be shaped and colored and you would use racing style hardware.

Or look for sets like these:

Don't use masking tape, people can tell the difference. I haven't fit the ribbon I have to the photoetch, but it is the most realistic I found. This stuff is more like a cloth, no frills on the edges, an not shiney like most ribbon. You can buy black and white then use a blue marker on the white ribbon. Link to ebay listing, you will want 2mm:
