    John, I don't think the retractors were available in U.S. yet, not allowed until 72 best I know, but were available ROW by 69 I believe, don't have the parts book here.

    They were a dealer option. I have a NOS pair waiting to go on my restoration project. I will try to dig them out and get a picture, but I think there have been a few sets in the FS forum the past couple years.

    Here are some from a US delivered car 1972 which I also thought was the first year for US cars.







    Hope they help

    You guys are the best! Thanks for the pictures and information. Thanks Dave as I now have the correct webbing and labels, so the hardware and the retractors are left and I should be good to go.
