Latest project: Making sure when I get killed in a crash, my body
stays strapped to the seat. Yes, I'm trying to make the seatbelts
functional.
The problem is that they won't retract much, just a bit. I took the
side covers off and amused myself with that darn clever inertia
system. Pretty cool and simple. Back to the subject: The spring that
does the recoil seems to have lost it's oomph. What are my options?
Find junkyard springs that still have their oomph? Can I find new
springs to replace them?
Last, the brand name on the seatbelt is Kango Reflex. Is this OEM or
after-market? I don't want to kill myself trying to find "original"
after-market replacements.
Thanks dudes (and dudettes),
