are there any trim places that can replace the webbing and stich as new? (thinking motorsport places perhaps...). The mechanism is ok it's just the webbing has been torn. It's on a classic car so can't buy a complete replacement. It's a regular inertial reel type seatbelt. I'm guessing there are companies out there (in the uk) that make seatbelts so must have the capability of sewing to whatever safety specs are required.
