Default 1988 F150 Seatbelt Replacement

Does anyone know where to get replacement seat belts for a 1988 F150? Other than a junk yard?

Any help would be great I can't pass inspection till I get them fixed. I've looked at LMC and Broncograveyard but aren't seeing any that fit the 87-91 specifically. Thanks

Can you use an aftermarket set like one of these?

My impression was this was a lifetime warranty from the dealer if your seat belts are broken. Wouldn't they be able to replace at no charge?

I've heard this before, but never known anyone who got new ones. I mean, what about old cars where the manufacturer no longer makes the part? I'd be interesting in finding out. My truck and 2 fox body mustangs sure could use some brand spankin' new belts!


Edit: I just did some research and it looks like there is no all-inclusive seatbelt warranty coverage. They are covered according to whatever your manufacturer's warranty coverage says.

I just sold a set of 95 belts to a guy for his 80 bronco. He checked them out and said he's absolutely certain that they bolt right in.
Personally I don't recall the exact configuration for 87 - 91, but it's the same basic cab from 80 to 96.
92 to 96 has a bolt through the floor at the bottom of the B pillar, then a D ring near the top of the b pillar and a retractor 3/4 of the way down.
As long as that's what your configuration is, I'd think it's not necessarily 87 to 91 specific

Nice, we finally got to the bottom of it.
