One of mine has been wrapped in strips of black universal repair material (aka gaffer tape) since I bought the car and found the plastic trim under the seat.

What's it made of Dave?

Jeff

its made of plastic,looking closely at it there's a screw on the under side,so i think you can remove the hole trim,im going to try fibreglass to build up what's missing,if i add a little bit of white paint to the fibreglass mix,will it turn it white ?

Have you called all the Stag breakers advertising in the Mag. ? Although l have heard that some refuse to sell used seatbelt bits so tell them you need 1 to experiment on.......

[Jeff]

That's what I was going to suggest Dave. Never added paint so not sure, could get a bad reactions???

I think filler would be too brittle and easy to damage plus getting it to adhere whereas fibreglass will be stronger then finish off with filler?

Hi Dave,

Mine broke in much the same way. I got a replacement from Wins. They might be worth trying.

Cheers,
Mike.
