Ok, so i bought some s14 seatbelts for my s13 pretty cheap. I wanted to keep all my panels and not have to dish out an additional $100+ for jdm panels/headliner. Read a thread where a guy had bought jdm panels and not the headliner so it wouldnt fit. so he cut out holes in his panel and fit the seat belt loop hole thing from the jdm panel to his usdm panels.
Does anyone know what its called and whether i can order the piece by itself? Or is there anything similar to the piece that i can get fairly easy? Maybe something equiped on another nissan or usdm car
Heres a pic of what im talking about.
thanks

The japanese/canadian a and b pillar cover fit closer to the uni body. when I did my first s14 conversion, I tried to cut hole in the usdm b pillar. No matter how I cut it. Either the belt would catch and bind or it looked really shitty. After all the trouble I finally just ended up buying the correct japanese parts for my wifes car and my sileighty. Soooooo much easier.

The panels still fit just fine without the headliner, there will just be a 2" gap between the top of the panel and the bottom of the headliner. But, they still fit- just wanted to make a note of that. Good luck!

LOL that's my car. I have 180sx seat belts. The bezel came with the seat belts and panels when I bought it. I just cut a hole in my USDM panels and popped it in. I don't know how you could buy it. It comes with the 180sx seat belts.
