Seat belts

Hi Chap's
Red seat belts fitted. It was a very easy and inexpensive. I bought 2 rolls of Red seat Belt webbing off eBay that came with red thread and the clasp buttons.

Removal of the existing belts is just a case of unclipping the carpeted side pane!s, loosening the 8mm bolt on the plastic arm at the top, removing a screw that's halfway down. The trim panel should lift up and off now.

After that there is just 3 17mm bolts. One for the cassete, one for the shoulder and one on the sill.

I cheated and passed the belts to my mechanic friend who then fitted the new webbing. He then took them to the tailor shop near his shop for the stitching to be done by an expert.

I then fitted then back into the car and added the buttons.

Total cost: £20 for webbing, £10 to my mechanic and £10 for the tailor.
