Seat Belt Retractor Cover - RCF-401
Hey guys,
Other than tracking eBay, does anyone know where I could possibly find replacement seat belt retractor covers with part number RCF-401? They're for the front seats. Note the hinged "door".

Car in question is a 1970 Cutlass SX. And, it has the deluxe seat belt option (this may or may not be pertinent).
The Parts Place reproduces covers (RCF-400), but they are a bit smaller. The base of the retractor sticks out below the cover and would be exposed. Plus, the belt doesn't retract deep enough to be able to extend back up.

Is you interior seiana? what color do you need, I'd bet someone on here has an extra set that may be the color you need - otherwise yes ebay is a place to watch, be patient they show up inexpensively occasionally

What did you end up finding that works for your SX in regards to the retractor cover? I am having a heck of a time finding anything that fits. Any and all help/recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you!

Anyway, for a '70 SX the cover will be one piece. The correct cover will depend on whether or not you have standard vs deluxe front seat belts.

Interesting…. I appreciate your response. I believe that I have the deluxe front seat belts, since mine have the metal buckle and not plastic. The old ones that were cracked and broken did not have the rear door to them and looked almost identical to the RCF-300, but obviously were bigger.

As it turns out, retractor covers with hinged door are for '72 model years. I believe the opening is to provide access to a wire for cars with a seat belt warning option mounted on the dash. I'm sure others will chime in if this is incorrect.

The Pontiac guys, of all folks, are repoping the 401 covers. Ames sells them IIRC. It was a revelation to find their catalog and all the small interior bits that everyone else ignores.

Flip through the catalog. It's cathartic.
