I really don't want to spend $200. Not only that but I had a problem with the aftermarket retractable set I put in my 82 Square. The retractable side would get tighter and tighter while I was driving, to the point where I had to undo and reconnect the belt. Do you have that problem with yours? Mine were from Juliano's. I wish someone would copy the OE mechanism, because it worked fine and didn't get tighter.
