The 3-point belt in our range is universal, which can be mounted in most vehicles, but when the belt is connected to a (side) airbag, it unfortunately cannot be placed. Then we must refer you to the dealer. The cassette of the belt must also be placed 90 ° (ie vertically), only when it is placed vertically will the belt disengage and unwind. The 3-point belt is suitable for mounting on the door jamb, as long as the cassette is mounted vertically (90 °).

If you wish to use the belt on the rear seat, it is therefore advisable to check whether the belt cassette is placed vertically or horizontally.
This automatic 3-point seat belt can be placed on the driver's side as well as on the passenger side.

The 3-point belt is available with receiver or without receiver. https://seatbeltspecialist.com/Webwinkel-Category-16662974/3-point-car-seatbelt.html The bundles for a belt with receiver can be found below on the same page.

There is a roll-over protection on the 3-point belts. This means that it blocks when the car rolls over (or when the car is not standing upright) and that you are therefore held in your seat by the seat belt in the event of such an accident. A bullet weight in the retractor takes care of this.

- It is therefore important that you hold the reel exactly vertically (as it should be mounted in the car) because only then it unwinds.

We only supply belts and parts for belts. Assembly is best arranged locally through your own car company or carried out yourself if you are handy with this.

The length outside the cassette determines which length is suitable. Measure the length up from the roll-up cassette to the shoulder mounting point and from the shoulder mounting point to the end mounting point. Without anyone sitting in the chair, the length outside the cassette is important.

With the 3.5 meter belt (XL) there is 100 cm of tape outside the cassette which needs to be tensioned. The measured distance must be 110 cm or longer.
With the 4 meter belt (XXL) there is 150 cm of strap outside the cassette which needs to be tensioned. The measured distance must be 160 cm or longer.

Year of manufacture after 31-12-1989: a seat belt must be present on all forward-facing seats, including the rear seat. If a place does not have a seat belt, this is not a seat!

Year of construction after 1-1-1995: seat belts must be present on both forward and rear-facing seats
