Fraying seat belt V8V

[Tom_GGG]

Ive got a fraying drivers seat belt on a 09 V8V (see link image below), whats the simplest way to get this replaced ? Dose it need to be an AM part ? Is it just the belt that gets replaced or is it the whole mechanism too ?

Ball park what would this cost ?

When mine was replaced it was a complete unit as it has the pre-tensioner as well. It was an AM part as it was covered under warranty.

Once it was replaced I stopped using the leather strap at the top of the seat as the guide. It's what causes it to fray

You can get the belt fabric only replaced professionally at FDT in Byfleet. I use them to reweb seat belts in custom colours.

They replace the webs on Tesco's delivery articulated vehicles to a bright colour so that the drivers can be seen to be wearing the belts on CCTV.

Never heard of them so googled it. It's actually FDTS Ltd in West Byfleet. Didn't know they were there - they are right next door to the garage who MoT my bike and cars!
