I'm watching this post as I'm getting ready to do the same thing. I went to the auto parts store and they sell a vinyl and fabric paint in aerosol can. I also found at Walmart in the auto section a bottle of fabric dye that applies like the old liquid shoe polish of several years ago. I need to finish cleaning my belts, so I haven't had a chance to use either one yet. Let's see what others have to say.
If your belts are black or darker than your seat upholstery, the spray dye will rub off the belts and mark the seat upholstery
Rit fabric dye that you boil on the stove is the best procedure, but you have to remove the sewn in labels to avoid dyeing them also, your choice as to whether you sew them back on later?

Is this the restorer you mentioned? My interior is all black and so are the belts. Waiting to see others input on this subject. If your looking to have your Mopar seat belts restored look no further than our own Moparts member Bill Edwards: http://allmoparseatbelts.com/about.asp
Bill has done two sets of belts for me...restored my originals and swaped out some nice cores for a restored set...great service and very resonable pricing.

I did the Ritz Dye on mine. Look at their website for directions. My label's were all ready old and mostly gone so it didn't bother me that the are no black.
