Does anyone have the 3 pt seatbelts from morris industries or andover restraints in there car? If so, why is the difference in price so drastic, about 100 bucks.

do a quick search as there are quite a few people using the andover kits....

I have the Andover setup and am happy with it. My only complaint (and it's a small one), is that you have to be very slow and deliberate when unreeling the belt. I have the knack of it and no longer even think about it, but whenever someone else gets in the car, they jerk on it and it locks up - usually takes them several tries to get it. Not a big deal though and the price is right.

ditto.

My setup uses the "extended" upper pivot to keep the strap off of my chin/neck.

I installed the Morris belts today in my '72, went in very nicely and look pretty darn good I thought (my wife even said it made the car look like a real car). Similar comment to 70 ElkySS though, pul on them fast and they lock up.
