Front seat belt question

Talk to me about front seat belt application and interchangeability. I apologize if I missed it in my quick search.
The driver's front seat belt "latch" is cracked and looking to replace it.
My search comes up with pn:1248600586

Thanks

There were a bunch of different p/n's used on the 124 and 201, with some minor differences. The p/n is listed on the fabric tag at the bottom/end of the belt.

I think the 201 may have slightly shorter belt length but I'm not certain. I believe almost all are interchangeable but you may need to swap out the B-pillar upper bolt hardware, if installing an older belt. Otherwise just look for a good donor belt from a later (90-91 or newer?) 124 chassis, or 201 chassis.

I've had to replace a number of seat belts due to similar issues with the black plastic breaking.
