My Tiger had Beam belts when I purchased it in 1977. Not sure if they were dealer installed. They are American made, so may have been installed by Rootes in New York. Beam seatbelts are a classic flip design as used in airplanes and are still available today in multiple colors. SeatBeltsPlus carry them. I got new ones from JC Whitney years ago. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Kangol seatbelts are the magnetic buckle type. They were listed by Rootes in the Avenger/Cricket parts book. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Britex belts were used in many British cars. They were of the push button type and listed for the 69 Alpine.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Irvin belts were made by the Irvin Parachute Company. Not sure what Rootes vehicle these were listed for. They are sought after and quite expensive. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Attached are pictures.
