Mis-matched Seat Belt HELP!

I own a 2002 Ford e350 15 passenger van (just bought it). JUST realized the seats are from a newer model, and the seat belts on the walls don't fit the buckles on the seats (just for bench seats, the front seats are fine). What do I do? Can I replace JUST the male buckles on the walls?

thanks
Jason

Much easier to replace the buckles on the seat.

They are available as a Ford OEM part --- I know... I had a few that wore out replaced.

There are many sources for those parts --- many churches etc. got rid of the last seat of their E-350 to reduce the risk of rollover.

Start by shopping for the seat / belt combo --- and then strip the belts and dump the seat....
