They are an official Morgan factory spare part, but don't have the part number. They come in black or brown. I noticed them on an early CX Plus Four in the showroom at Krazy Horse, when I took my car to be serviced. So they ordered them in for me. They are an oblong of thick saddle leather complete with a smaller metal reinforcement rivetted onto the underside of the leather, which also acts as the attachment bracket. You undo the seatbelt guides attached to the top of the seat back and pop the new parts between the guides and seat back and screw both back on to the seat. Took me 5 minutes. I tried to post a photo, but it has defeated me. You can see them here: https://www.torque.com.sg/news/all-new-morgan-plus-four-unveiled/Martin

When I had a Plus8 it had a curved plastic fitting that raised the belt just above the seat. It was curved and prevented the belt rubbing on the seat leather. It was fitted to the original guide bolted to the seat back. One broke and I couldn't find a replacement. It worked similar to a saddle leather patch, preventing rubbing on the seat.
I have thought of trying to make one but not delved into it yet. Mine broke too. Replaced with a couple of ‘slipperier’ homemade belt skids. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2026/03/26/seatbelt1.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2026/03/26/sbelt.jpeg)

Thank you Martin. I’ll ask Ledgerwood who service my car if they can track one down from MMC as I certainly don’t have the wit to make one like Rog’s and I wouldn’t have a clue what to do with those on nick w’s post. My mechanical skills are limited and even those are questionable which makes TM invaluable.

The item on eBay is very simple..it fits on the headrest support and you thread the belt through it...see the slit that makes it easy. It moves the belt up and to the side. Very simple, cheap (ISH).

I have thought of trying to make one but not delved into it yet. Mine broke too. Replaced with a couple of ‘slipperier’ homemade belt skids. As I often worked with PP, PC, glasfiber I made a new one to replace my broken one of small sheets of black ABS. ABS or PC is often offered on ..bay. You can cut it with a sissor on and drilling the hole is no problem. 10 minutes work and cheap as......

Thank you Nick, I've taken a closer look and it was one of those "ah now I see" moments. At that sort of money they're worth a try and I might look at the leather saddle type as well once I know the cost..

Just had the leather saddle type supplied via my Morgan dealer (Revolutions, Perth)
“ BLACK SEAT BELT COVER GUIDE ”. £81.62 for the pair.
