FTO AUSTRALIA

Hey guys,
Just wondering how hard it is to fix the drivers side seat belt??
Whether i get it fixed by a company? How much would it cost??
Whether i do it myself? How do i take the panel off?
Or if someone has done it themselves? A guide would be much appreciated!!

depends on why its not retracting if its twisted, you will probably need to take panel off and sort it out from there real easy to do though. But sometimes a clean and a lube will fix it. get a screwdriver, wrap some tissue paper thin over the top and rub it (with a little elbo grease) underneath the seatbelt slide (the top part of the seatbelt). then just spray some silicone spray on too area that has just been cleaned.

EDIT: so if that doesnt work then follow bens advice

Its illegal to pull apart seatbelt mechanisms, hence the security star shaped screws they use. Best off buying a new one. They come in kits including all the latches etc. The only fiddling you'll have to do is installing it into the FTO components (like putting the latch in the FTO holders that are bolted to the seats etc.) Last one I bought cost me $120.

Who said anything about pulling apart the seat belt mechanisims

The bit that rolls the seatbelt up... well, I call it a mechanism

Oh i get it..... you werent repling to my post you were just making a general remark
