Can anyone with a centre seatbelt in the rear please take a photo of the part that you clip into the errr bit that you clip it into lol

I know what I mean... it's the bit on the end of the belt and not the bit with the button.

Cheers

This bit?

Cheers fella, that's the bit. Does it clip into the bit it's meant to clip into??

You see.. mine looks identical to that but the little plastic bit in the middle of it prevents it from clipping in. Is your centre clippy-in bit different to the other 2 or the same. All 3 of mine in the back are the same but my 2 outer belts don't have that little plastic knobble bit!!

Erm...!
The other 2 belts don't have that "knobble" - I thought maybe it was to help it clip in to the bit on the parcel shelf, but it doesn't appear to do much... I don't use that anyway - prefer to just hide the belt under the armrest.

The belt clips into either of the "clippy-bit-with-the-red-button"s quite happily, & they all appear to be the same!

That is very very odd. I think you're right about the platic bit helping it to clip into the parcel shelf but it definately stops it from clipping into the bit with the button (what do you call that) and all 3 of mine are also the same... I think I'l sleep on it

Very wierd... maybe you've got new style clippy bits & old style belts for some bizarre reason?! Don't even know if they changed! I'll take a pic of my clippy bit if you want...

Yeah go on, wouldn't hurt to compare

may i suggest that you call the "clippy bit with the red button thingy" the seat belt "reciever?" It would save loads of typing and thats what i call it anyway..... much shorter than "the clippy bit that the belt clips into with the red button thingy"

sounds like some moron has fitted an outer belt receiver into the centre.

They all look the same though, would the internals be different?
