Very nice blue GS! The 09 GS wheels look good!

My 01 GS430 has a fray on the driver's side, it's getting worse... It seems like it was caused by a sharp flashing part of plastic on the buckle where it slides through... the only option is to replace the assembly. About $200 for it.

The seat has to come out and then a few pieces of interior trim, then the belt assembly bolts. I did one on an LS400 a number of years ago, not hard other than getting the seat out is heavy and awkward.

Thanks, love my spectra blue 98 GS4 w 120K miles.

Where did you buy the belt and was this a DIY?
