pe seat belts

heya guys…
just wondering if u’s could tell me where i could get some photo etch seat belts from (pref in oz, but not essential). ive checked out the eduard site, and theyre ok, but i was more interested in just the bucles and fittings and was gonna make the straps from ribbon.
also would these p-e belts be easy to copy?(im gonna b paying more for the belts than for the ferrari mythos kit!!!) i was thinking of scanning them, printing it then cutting them out of thin plastic, card or something else… has anyone else had any success with doin that?
thanks for the help!

Did you try Scaleautomobilia?

Try here they carry the ones from model car garage and the last detail.

HEY,
I built some ok ones from folded peices of soda cans. They dont have holes and stuff but if you had the right tools, like micro bits or something you could do that easily. They look pretty cool actually.

I’ve spent about 3 hours and am only 2/3rds of the way through the 5 pt harnesses on a Haseqawa WRC Corolla. The buckles and fittings are so fine I would hate to make them from scratch although as Randy has done if you have the right equipment you could do so, but it would drive me up the wall! Bite the bullet and buy an aftermarket set, especially if they are readily seen. Eduard aren’t the only manufacturer, look around for some others and I’ sure you’ll find what you need.

HEY,
Also the PE ones are probably a bit strnger too, so for those of you who always end up breaking small things, PE is the way to go for you.

Tominator,

I have send the eduard 4 point harness in Hearns Hobbies in Melbourne. Also if you are after the scalemotor sport buckles the only Australian distrubure that i know of is Grand Prix Mintures.
