I believe OEMs are available from Toyota, still. That is what I put in. Check with CDan.
I already checked for his 82, they are discontinued...

I run these in mine...well, same thing but RCI....easy in-out, easy to tuck the shoulder straps behind you and run lap only, safer than stockers without the bulk of a 3" race-type belt. Works well with stock seats, or aftermarkets.

Well, there's these:

But they are just lap belts, I think.

lap belt only....not my first choice...
Beat me to my edit. You're right.
I have the CCOT set. No real problems and everything seems to work fine. No problems with the latches. The only complaint I have with them is that the autolock mechanism in the retractor is a little over protective. Sometimes on bumpy roads I have to stop just to let it unlatch so I can grab the cb or hit the wipers. It's gotten better since I mounted the retractor more square (instead of tilted toward the upper mount), but it still happens.
My rear belts are almost never used, and the "push" release buttons are faded from sitting in the sun.
Other than that, it's tough to beat the prices.

J/K Thanks!
I was thinking OEM and hadn't really considered going generic like that, but they do look nicer and the price is similar. I have to shop more now that my target is larger, plus I'll keep looking for used OEM ones too...
What I don't like about the racing harness, besides that it's very inconvenient, is that it doesn't let go at all so I can't bend over and reach the transfer lever. This is a daily driver, not a race or comp truck, so I don't need anything special. The Corbeau one with the retractor is kinda cool, though. I'll have to think about it.
thanks guys!
hate to mention them, but you might try acme jeep or another heep shop...they'll have pretty much the same aftermarket stuff and i doubt their prices are that high. i bought anon retractable (wish i'd gotten retractable) lap belt for the wagon for $17
I just bought a set about a month ago and have not had any problems
I've been running them for a few years. No complanits. Wife got me another set for my new 40, so I guess I'll be using them for a few more years. If it is for trail only or mostly trail rig, I would go with the 4 pt harness. But that is too much of a PITA to use for DD.
I've had them in my 79 for a few years. They work fine, but I also find them a bit oversensitive. On a bumpy road I often find myself cursing because I can't reach the radio. One of my rears apparently got wet and the latch rusted shut, but a bit of liquid wrench and all is well now. Minor complaints in all considering the price and the fact that before I had NO seat belts.
I have sold and installed at least 5 sets of the CCOT, no problems at all, however, one thing to watch for is the bolts supplied may be too long for the upper on the hardtop, I installed one set that felt tight and it was bottoming out on the outside sheetmetal....
