Well it's been raining very heavy where I live and I got into my car after work put my seatbelt on and noticed it was wet :cry: It's only wet on the part that retracts, any tips or hints as to where it's coming from and how to cure it?

:lol: I wish it was that simple

When I say "the part that retracts" I mean the part of the belt behind the interior trim if you know what I mean

Are you sure you didn't trap it in the door when you got out ?

Check seals on door, i recon you left the door 'on the latch' when you last got out?
