Seatbelt help?

[carlisle pete]

hello guys

my drivers side seatbelt has decided to lock its self!

after a brief conversation with craig earlier he seems to think that the mk3 cupra's use same ones as the likes of polo's etc??

does anyone know who has got a spare one for sale or where the best place to get one is as they are £140.00 + vat from seat!!
and after iv just bought new coils and needing tyres i dont really want to have to get a brand new one..


any help would be great thanx.

I don't know if our seatbelts are the same as polo's etc but there is this on ebay:

Ive just bought a full set of interior trims off him and they are fooked.

 

[carlisle pete]

in what way are they fooked mate? hhmmmmm

Hi mate all is sorted now he has agreed to a full refund. He said i can keep the trims as i got them for 99p and he will refund me the £15 postage. He has replied very quickly to every email i sent and has been great with this problem. Here are the pics of the damaged trims, he said he has people who break the cars for him and package them and he just sells them but he was more than happy to refund me. So i think you should be alright on getting the seat belts.

my seatbelt is the complete opposite, it doesn't retract back and just flops about like a saggy tit, quite annoying when you trip over it at a petrol station and look a right t*at!! just bearing with it, re-map is the main priority!

seat belts from a crashed car are a big no-no

 

[20vtdave]

i thought they would be better, you know being proper tested and that!!!

I guess you'd apply that same principle to airbags too..

safety devices are meant to work once..... then replace

You thought about getting harnesses? Far safer than any seatbelt.

loads cheaper as well

 

[carlisle pete]

need to buy buckets though so not that cheap!!

I thought you were selling it for a 350z?
