AH Seat belts

A friend of mine gave me these seat belts that I think are original. I've seen the black ones with the MG/AH before but not the one's with the parachute and IRVIN stamping. If you have a similar set could you send me a photo of what they should look like? Also, does anyone know of someone who could restore them?
Thanks for looking.

My healey has the seatbelts that are in the first photo. I don't think they were original though. I seem to remember my Dad telling me he had to order them and put them in the car when he bought it in 1967 because the airforce wouldn't let him bring the car on base until it had seat belts. The latches on my belts are painted black, the MG logo is red on silver, and the healey logo on bottom is silver on blue. I'll try to get a picture asap.
 
I have what I believe to be original seatbelts for a BJ8 in "red". They are a course weave type of material with the MG/Austine Healey logo on them. Why I think they are original is because of a set of NOS for the rear seats sold on ebay for $350.00. I purchase my 67 when it was about 4 years old and I think they are original because of photos I've seen with them installed.

How about a photo Patrick?
I took pictures and I can't figure out how to get the image size down below 100k. I took them on my cameras lowest settings. I think I added a picture but can't see it.
