Bryan, what year GT6 are we talking about? Is it a Mk.1 or Gt6+, or is it
a Mk.3? Most of the earlier (pre-Mk.3) cars used American-sourced seat
belts (American Safety Weave was one of, if not THE, brand), and that part
you seek -- if it's what I think it is, namely the black "sleeve" that the
retractor reel ultimately rests in -- might well be common to any number
of contemporary American cars. So you might check junkyards, if you can
find yards that still have late 1960s and early 1970s American cars.
Just a thought....
