Hi All,
Our 1979 Citabria 7ECA came with lap belts only (front and back). I understand that an option in 1979 was to get a single shoulder belt for each seat front and back. The front has an inertia reel and the back has an adjustable length connection. I’m hoping someone can help me find some used original shoulder belts. The only other option is to buy and install 4 or 5 point hooker harnesses which come with an STC. As far as I have been able to find, there is no STC for shoulder belts, which is why we are trying to find standard shoulder belts for the 1979 Bellanca Citabria. If anyone has an idea as to how to add a set of shoulder belts I would greatly appreciate your input. The 4/5 point harness system requires extensive headliner cutting and modifications that the standard shoulder belt would not. I appreciate any knowledge you may have about this subject. Thanks!
