    Finding a used good one will be tough. They're available new for around $75. What ever you find you'll want to keep it from breaking again. Clink the link below for "side reinforcement"

    A new belt is arend $130-$160 and completely worth it. I just changed mine out and I wish I had done it way sooner. The belt was all frayed, jamming in the buckle and wouldn’t retract at all

    Have any of you purchased 3rd party seat belts? I have an older model and the seat belts are pricey. New ones on ebay (3rd party) are like $40.

    I purchased them when I owned a Jeep Wrangler. I can't imagine that they will bolt into a Tacoma without a little work.

    I've contemplated buying them for the Taco as mine are shot and I don't want to pay the OEM price but I don't drive the truck so I keep putting it off.

    I bought a new OEM seatbelt for my truck, it's still sold at the dealer. Cost me roughly $160.

    I enjoy seeing mine dangling outside the door in the morning following heavy rain all night. At that point the day can only improve.

    Try clamping the seatbelt all the way retracted and sticking it in a hot bucket of water with laundry powder. Does wonders.

    @Snowy , can you share where you purchased your seat belt? I am having the same issue - frayed webbing and jamming. I have a '98 Driver's side. Thank you

    I purchased mine from Lagrange Toyota. It was over $100 cheaper than from my local dealership. This one is oak color for a base Toyota, but they (and other dealers) have the other colors too. Left is driver side and right is passenger side.
