Installation recommendations

Generally/typically for seat belt replacement, the exact procedure may vary depending on the specific design of the car and the interior. Below is a practical general procedure for this type of part.

1) Before assembly

• Check that the new part matches the old part in shape, orientation and attachment type.
• Compare right side, rear location and belt design including FXX Black color.
• Check the condition of the used part – the belt must not be torn, frayed, contaminated with oil or otherwise mechanically weakened.
• Check the function of winding and smooth extension of the belt. The mechanism must work without stuttering.
• Inspect the anchor points in the car for damage, corrosion or deformation.

2) Necessary tools and materials

• Set of common hand tools
• Tools for dismantling interior plastics
• Clean rag for cleaning around the assembly
• Possibly a lamp for checking the fastening and guiding of the belt

3) Step-by-step assembly procedure

1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and secure it against movement.
2. Access the installation area by removing the relevant covers and upholstery so that the old belt and its attachment are clearly visible.
3. Before disassembly, note the belt guide, the position of the mechanism and the orientation of the individual fastening points.
4. Carefully dismantle the original seat belt including all parts that directly belong to it.
5. Check for dirt, damaged covers or deformed parts at the mounting location.
6. Compare the old and new part side by side, especially the length of the belt, the fit, the orientation of the winder and the shape of the guide elements.
7. Place the used belt in the mounting position so that it is not twisted and matches the original line.
8. Sequentially fasten the individual mounting points in the same order in which the original part was dismantled.
9. Before covering the interior, slowly extend the belt several times and let it wind back to make sure it runs freely.
10. Check that there is no friction anywhere on plastic parts, upholstery or body edges.
11. Refit all covers and interior elements.
12. Perform a final functional check of the belt in normal use mode.
• 4) Post-assembly checks and test drive/function verification
  • Check that the belt retracts and retracts smoothly without jerking.
  • Verify that the belt fits correctly at all guide and attachment points.
  • Try putting the belt on and off in normal use.
  • While riding, listen for play, knocking or rubbing from the mounting area.

  5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them

  • Twisted belt – always check the entire belt guide before final tightening.
  • Incorrect orientation of the mechanism – before disassembly, mark the original position and compare it with the new part.
  • Insufficient control of the part used – check the condition of the fabric and the function of the winding before assembly.
  • Damage to interior plastics – use appropriate tools to remove the trim and do not use force.
  • Covering without prior test – always verify the function of the belt first before refitting all covers.

  Reasons why the part is damaged

  • Normal wear and tear from long-term use
  • Mechanical damage to the belt due to careless handling
  • Contamination that impairs the winding or movement of the mechanism
  • Damage after an accident or sudden strain on the security system
  • Deformation or wear of anchor and guide parts
  • Inappropriate previous assembly or intervention in the interior of the vehicle
