Hi everyone,
I was wondering if the AU2's adjustable seatbelt height adjusters were able to be bolted onto my Au1? The plastic on the AU1 gets cut up by the belt if you're a shorter guy like me! Does anyone else have this problem? I was thinking that the AU2's should be a simple enough switch. Anyone done it? What would the parts be worth you reckon? Cheers, George |

Yep, I've done this... no probs (just remember that the rail bolt creates its own thread). A cheap mod - even buying the parts new from Ford!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've done it also. Replaced the seat belts and B-pillar trim to AU2 height adjustable ones. Unfortunately you need the new seat belts as well, you can't just go an replace the trim.

George,
I have an AUII & the adjuster has worn the belt fraying the edges. The plastic on the adjuster is also worn by the belt leaving a groove. Cant win either way. Geoff |
