Thanks again Bossman. I did exactly as you described and boy were they dirty!! I gently scrubbed them and rinsed. They almost look they do not even need the black spray I bought  ;).

I cleaned my belts using Oxy Clean over the weekend. The transformation was amazing. The part number tags which were almost completely grey and illegible are now white and easy to read. The belts have a new looking sheen. Awesome low buck fix!

Just as a follow up... I painted/dyed the seat belts so they all match and look fresh. I made a “rack” out of scrap wood to hold the front retractors open. I’m pleased with the results. Thanks again to everyone for their input.
