I finally found my unicorn - a completely intact set of grey front seatbelt receivers. The red "PRESS" buttons are faded and mounting hardware a bit corroded but the plastic sleeves are PERFECT.

I figured I'd clean up the mounting bracket best I can while still attached and hit with some rust inhibitor. Bolts/washers can just be swapped for current.

Not sure if I try to disassemble to connection head to hit PRESS with some red paint? Would heat gun draw out the color? Leave it alone?

Also any good ways to stop these from cracking that keeps the OEM look? Trying to think of ways to reinforce the tops so they don't quickly fall apart.

Love any advice you have. Took me 1.5 years to find these!
