Hi,
I have a five year old Vectra estate coming up for its NCT (Irish MOT). The seat belts, only one of which gets used much, have all become very reluctant to wind back into the spool when released.
Is there a way to re-tension them or perhaps a suitable lubricant to put on them? There is a retaining bolt/nut at the spool bottom which requires a very long socket to undo to release them from the chassis. Does anyone know what size that very inaccessible nut is, so that I could fabricate something to do the job with - e.g. weld something onto a socket or find a suitable box spanner if anyone still sells such things?
Experience welcome.
Tony.
TIA.
