Everyone,
My shoulder belts seem to be real parsnickety. The drivers belt does not retract back to a tight position. I have removed it and taken off the case and then it seems to work fine. Just seems fouled up when assembled and on the car. I hate to get news ones for no reason, and I don't want to install any other kind of restraints. Anyone know any tricks for getting these things to work well? MadeRight |

I think they only had 1 pin. I took the whole setup out of a 924, as the buckles are different. The reel mechanism has a pin on the back that is a different size and/or length than the 914 reels. I heard somewhere that some may have a removable pin and you can swap them.. mine was tack welded on to the reel body, so I just broke it off. Once it's bolted in place in a 914, it can't really go anywhere, so the pin isn't important.
(important note: this is only for late 914s with the firewall provision for a retractable seatbelt) |
