Hi all, we need the clips that hold the seat belt to the seats as both have snapped.
Quite a big repair is this as you need to remove the upper seat covering to access the clips from the inside.
Or, there are several ways you can make cost effective repairs such as the one I used. Use the search icon and type in seat belt clip repairs.

It comes under the heading of "Articles" Natalie.

You can buy them from eBay etc and the dealers and they are not expensive. The expensive bit is getting someone to do the job. Ideally if you can do it yourself.

Mine too are cactus, furthermore they have been cactus under the seat covers for long enough to damage an otherwise fantastically preserved seat. My solution is a bit different from others I have found and does not require the removal of the seat. Just a little bit of creative patchwork that also hides the damage caused by the broken clip. If I pull it off as I expect it should look good too, and be repeatable if it happens again...

There are several ways to repair this problem, as well as replacing the plastic guide just google it.

My local upholstery shop installed my new ones. Quite cheap and done properly. I bought the clips off eBay
Well I did it, for the cost of a coffee. Its a bit agricultural but it works and they are stronger than new ones.. took me ten minutes a side..
I will putty up the breaks at some stage, then nugget the seat and clip..
