SVA compliant seat belts

Anyone near Petebrorough with a set I can loan for sva re test. (standard 3 point)
Is there a specific type required for sva or can I just get a set off at the breakers?
Thanks

they need to be e marked, there is normally a little tab on the harness.

If getting some from a scrappy make sure that they will actually fit on your car e.g. the position of the mounting points might make a standard tintop belt too long or short

I had a set of 4 points for my sva, then the examiner spotted a hole in my seat for crutch straps on 6 points.
He pointed out that a belt does not have to be e marked but be of equivalent standard.
I queried the 6 points turn buckle design and he said no problem, they would have passed.
I'm waiting for a retest but I am sticking with the 4 points until after sva as these passed. I don't want to introduce another failure!
As soon as I get passed there will be a pair of 4 point sabelts up for sale!

^ this is one of my favourite questions. its one of those ones which isn't as straightforward ads people think, and everyone says they MUST be e marked, and they don't. theres a whole list of acceptable standards as martin says
