Will most likely fit I wouldn't trust an ebay brand seat belt tho. Bet it will say "FOR OFF ROAD USE ONLY" that way when someone flys threw the windsheild they won't be held accountable. Don't do it go to a pick n pull most integras have black belts my GSR does at least they'll be Certified(just make sure there's no rips or things like that).

it'd be easier to find an integra in a junk yard then? the one on ebay says "All Black 3 Three Point Retractable Seat Belt, Shoulder Belt System, NEW AMSAFE" thanks for the help

There a thread on here I read a while back about roll cages and safty harness. It was really intriguing and explained how not using them properly would be super dangerous.

Also anything that cost $34.99, I wouldnt trust with my life. Seat belts are one of the most important thing in a car. There is a reason even respected seat belt makers expire their porduct after a certain time.

Honda/Acura belts are all basically the same. You can get them out of damn near any car. Mine came out of an Acura EL and are true black. EM1 belts will also work, and are hyper gray or something similar, which is basically an almost black gray. Integra, RSX, CL, EL, take your pick, they'll all work.

Do not buy an ebay seat belt, grab a junkyard one or buy an OEM one from Honda.

Roll cages and harnesses are not for street use. You get in an accident and hit your head on a bar then you die, unless you want to wear a helmet whenever you drive.
