Why are the seatbelts being replaced?
I have to ship my belts with retractors; the vendor is changing the webbing from black to red.
The car will not be driven except to relocate 2 blocks away.

I am fairly sure you will be OK.

In any case, the airbags will not deploy except maybe in an accident.

YMMV

There are several vendors that off replacement webbing for about the same price and same turn around time.
