How can I get this replaced? Anyone got any idea who does it?

Cheers,

I have heard conflicting reports on this subject. When I needed to replace mine a year or two ago, I was told that the old stuff could not simply be unpicked, and new webbing added. As a result, it was a question of specifying the part numbers for the belts to a company called AMSAFE, and they provided the complete belts. Not cheap, but a good quality job.

Since then I have heard others say that they have had belts rewebbed by various people, but have always suspected that this route was not strictly kosha.

This chaps are definitely the market front-runners. Turn over the buckle on most seatbelts these days and you'll find their logo.

David,

Much loved by the aerobatic and warbird company are Hooker Harnesses - however, they do PMA'd belts for most types.

You'll find them if you do a Google search - do be careful as Hooker can bring up results that you'd probably not want to expose your kids or patients, to!

You can choose from a whole rainbow palette of colours!
