Thread: the old seatbelt slammed in the 110 door catch problem

It’s illegal to “repair “ seatbelts I’m afraid.

You can buy new retractable belts for well under $200, I doubt at that price a repair would be economically viable, even if it was legal.

Thanks both. Where have you seen them well under 200? Cheapest aftermarket I've found is $230 at AllFourx4.

Now, that IS interesting. Especially as they are in the land of Regulation, Victoria. I wonder if they are cheaper than a new one in this case.

Did you click the link, John? From $150.00 to reweb is not cheaper than new generic belts, but reasonable if OEM look is important.
When was Welshpool moved to Victoria? That would have been a heck of a job, why wasn't I asked to help?
