length of seat belt

I got tired of having to disconnect my seat belt to reach the parking brake release so I finally made an extension for the seat belt mount. Much less frustration now, I am curious if all the 93s have the problem or just mine.

Re:length of seat belt

I know that on my 92, it is a PAIN to reach anything. I wish it was a little longer, maybe by only 1 foot at least. Have to undo the belt just to reach the Glove Box.

Re:length of seat belt

I have exactly the same problem. I'm smaller than average, both height and width, but I swear if I put on another 10#, I won't be able to fasten it.<br><br>John

Re:length of seat belt

Would you happen to have any pictures of your extension for your seatbelts? Easy to do? What was the price to have fixed?

Re:length of seat belt

Go to your friend Dodge dealer and smile, politely tell them your problem. My dealer ordered up two factory seat belt extentions, right color and all. They are about 6-8 inches long. The price.............No charge!!!

Re:length of seat belt

Well, I have ordered my set of lengthened seatbelts. Problem is, back ordered with no known date. Seems like all of you people on the west coast have been ordering them and it doesn't leave any on the east coast. <br><br>They did have one in from the 94 - up trucks but it did not fit my buckles. So I will need to wait until they come in. Won't that be a wonderful Christmas present, by the time it gets here. ;D
