Hi All,
I tried searching this site and the web but could not find what I was looking for so I am turning y’all with my question.
Does anyone know where to purchase webbing that is or is close to original for an Elan Sprint with nonretractable seat belts. All of my hardware is in good shape so I just want to replace the webbing.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi Jay,
When making up a pair of Kangol Magnet seatbelts to replace the modern ones that had been fitted in my car, I obtained some webbing from the scrapyard.
I chose the rear seat belts from a high mileage Ford Mondeo which in the UK was the standard salesman`s car.
They may not have been used at all.
When I told the yard owner what I wanted them for, he gave them to me. They were just junk to him.

Try FTDS in the UK (http://fdts-seatbelts.co.uk/Index.html or Andover Restraints (https://www.andoauto.com/ARW-Index.htm) in the US.
Original webbing was 3" 4 or 5 panel.

I am sure like anything else, the stitching is the important part.
Any seamstress or tailor will be sufficient.
The internal spring (s) etc will take some fiddling.

Find out where the limits are, and start from there
