I installed my 4th gen seats this weekend. was my reaction after stepping back and looking at the car. Anyway, how do you guys suggest getting my 3rd gen seatbelts through the 4th gen seat guides? I thought they'd be slotted, but nah, that woud be too easy.

Suggestions?

 

I used a hack saw to cut between the two screw holes. Once I reinstalled it, you couldn't even tell.

 

I was thinking that, just wondering if anyone had any other ideas.

 

I did the same, but with a coping saw for the smaller kerf.
looks factory, IMO.

 

I cut mine between the bolt holes also.

 

Its not great but I reused the stock stuff, screwed right back into place and works for now. I dont see a cleaner way of using the 4thGen stuff than whats posted already, when Im bored one day Ill look into it more...

 

I used my stock holders. I was thinking of cutting the 4th gens but I ended up not going with it.

 

I also cut between the holes. I would recommend this. The 4th gen belt guides are alot nice then the 3rd IMO. Just cut between the holes and you can't even tell...

 

I went and bought the seatbelt guides from the dealer for a Convertible since they have a slit in them. $7.00 for the pair.

 

Somebody what thinking...

 

Some of our club members have verts and I noticed that the retainers weren't closed but had a slit in them.

Dealer couldn't find the right part number for it though, so I took one off of my friends car and wrote the number down.
I'll post the part numbers later if anyone wants them.
Cost for you at the dealer if you don't get a discount is $14/pair, our club is sponsored by the dealer so we get parts at wholesale.

 

Thanks for that bit of info, thats definitely the way Im gonna go and saved me alot of hassle plus it doesnt get any cleaner looking than that, thanks for the tip!!!

 

Good idea Zeph. Can we get a part Number?

THANKS!
