Grommet for seat belt
 
I need to cut a hole in my seat for the shoulder belts, does anyone know where i can get a grommet or something to trim the hole with?

I had a trim shop sew in vinyl on my seat. Looks like it came from the factory that way.

What's your health and safety worth $$$$$ wise?

Ed, my point was if there was a plastic snap in grommet or something that can be had vs me paying an upholstery shop to do a bunch of work on seats that need to be recovered.

Let's face it, if we (NHRA) were concerned about safety, we'd have race seats in these cars like even SCCA allows in their slowest, stockest low speed autocross cars. Stock seats are going to be worthless in a high speed crash, just ask woodro.

Viper Seats have a snap in Dual Grommet, you should be able to pick one up or order one at your dodge dealer. I would say 2008 viper.

Nice, thick, the DP has em and Ive pulled em before without breaking clips and put them right back in.
