Seatbelt supports.
Discussion
As I (not applicable to 'the other half) am now reaching the age and fitness levels that precludes easy twisting of my upper body to find the seatbelt which has retracted back to its stowed position above the rear wheel arch,
which might as well be on the next planet as far as geting hold of it is concerned without disembarking the car.
I have been thinking of ways of holding the 'at rest' position of the belt somewhere near my right ear which would be in-line with my shoulder and the seatbelt attachment point. I recall having seen some years ago some 2 door cars (Vauxhall Astra for example) that came as standard with a plastic fitting that was about a foot long and attached to the A post which held the belt in space so that you could reach it whilst sat in the seat.
Having thought further I have come to the conclusion that something smaller and attached to the seat would be OK. I think a fabric/leather loop attached to the headrest stem would work.
My question (finally) is this - on a 96 500 how are the headrests removed?
I have thought of this whilst away from my copy of the Bible (assuming its in there)
Thanks, Paul
