Well, after 2 1/2 years, my 914 is back home. Now it's time to re-install some interior bits and do some detailing. First,.....put the three sets of belts in.
Uh-oh!? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) How are they oriented? And what belt fastens under the left side of the (fixed) passengers' seat (I'm thinking one of the middle seat belts)? And lastly, you will see I've included 2 pictures of the drivers' side belt.The long end fastens to the interior of the "roll bar" area, and naturally, the short end mounts onto the inside of the longitudinal (through the carpet). BUT, the last picture shows the "adjustment loops" that are on the back side (against the driver). Since it has been so long since i've buckled up into this car that I've forgotten, but I thought the Open end of these adjustment loops faced outward. To do that, however, the "buckle" is backwards. Flipping the belts to the other side doesn't work either. I don't know if I have somehow hopelessly tangled them, or my memory of the adjustment loops is incorrect. Hopefully some of you early /4 and /6 owners can look and tell me how these belts go in. Paul Attached image(s) |
