Hi,
I’d like to upgrade the static 3pt belts on my 64 Mk2 MG Midget with inertia type. These are readily available ex-UK but I’d like to check they are suitably NZ-compliant in terms of what is displayed on the tags before buying please. Do they have to have AUNZ markings or will EU or BS suffice?
Thanks in anticipation, Alan

Hi Alan,
The following link lists approved seatbelt standards and markings which is used for entry compliance of imported vehicles, of which should still be applicable to a vehicle already in service in NZ. https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/virms/entry-certification/i-and-c/vehicle-interior/seatbelts-and-seatbelt-anchorages
