Does anyone know where I can buy some parts for a 1988 Corolla? All the of the sites I have found are all just nonsense that are trying to make you generate site traffic with parts trees that go nowhere.

I need some hardware (bolts, special washers) to make the seatbelts work correctly. They're pretty specialized in shape and I wouldn't want to try to find something at a hardware store to match.

I'm also considering welding in a harness bar if anyone has some really cheap harnesses they'd like to donate for a rallyx project :D

An '88 corolla might not be old enough...

ToyzUnlimited in Alamance county will likely have what you need. There is also a good chance I have the right bolts in my parts bin. Since I don't have an old Toyota anymore, you are welcome to stop by and pick through it.

I always use LKQ... its sometimes a long shot but is ALWAYS entertaining. It is truly amazing how some people yank engines out...OSHA would $hit

I've got an a couple of spare 5 pt harnesses if you still need..

let me know
