Exactly what I told my dogs.You don't need a parts store, you need a taxidermist!
LOL - no that would just give the mutt the last laugh ;-) Every time he had to move - dust or otherwise deal with the mutt. LOLYou don't need a parts store, you need a taxidermist!
Good call - may have a weekend trip to the scrap yard in my future.
Not sure to be honest, never worked on seatbelts. I imagine its bolt on into the seatbelt holder/retractor in the B-pillar. Maybe someone else with experience could chime in.
Seatbelt bolts are specialized hard parts. It may take a Torx bit and a lot of twisting force to budge them.
Awesome! Both belts including shipping are a just under $90! That's worth it for me to have piece of mind over pulling it off a wreck.
This is the way to go. Better junkyards are also computerized these days, and can find parts they may not have on site, and buy it and have it shipped in. There are also junkyards that specialize in imports, etc. When my HVAC "climate control" unit went out in our '94 SAAB 9000, a new unit was $1300, and that was over 10 years ago, too. The dealer gave me some numbers, and when I called the second one, they had the unit out of a wreck for $150, and it was plug, play & drive.....lasted until we sold the car. As far as the seat belts being rendered unusable in a wreck, one would assume there are cars out there that have been junked for other reasons.
Awesome - I've got all the tools (save an upholstery tool) and the parts on their way.
...just a suggestion but how about a rear seat cover that covers the seat belts...or putting them in the back with a rear divider?
That's gotta be better than following them down the street with an inverted plastic bag on your right hand! LOL!
