<x-charset iso-8859-1>it looks like you replaced two springs on your belt. one was the head spring and one as the retension spring. are both of these springs unique? ie can you only get them from another type 3, or would a spring store or hardware store carry them? and how did your rivet the belt back together? is it a pop rivet? where do you get rivets that size? thanks -kevin -----Original Message----- From: Everett Barnes [mailto:everettb@thesamba.com] Sent: Saturday, February 23, 2002 6:27 PM To: Type 3 (E-mail) Subject: Re: [T3] seat belts >on the subject of seat belts, mine does not retract-is this something worth tinkering with-oror is it a nightmare to open up? i havent looked too closely,iwas just cleaning up the sqbk recently and thought i might start using mine.... > The retraction spring may have broken, one of mine was like that. It's easy to replace, if you have a spare belt to pull the spring from. I have photos of the belt disassembled on my '67 Squareback page: http://www.thesamba.com/vw/scrapbook/67square Click on "Log".
