Hi Guys,
The seatbelt mod is done! I have sent the pics to Casper to post. I'll try to attach one of the finished product. Stay tuned for the procedure and photos. Cheers, George |

Does anyone else with the non-adjsutable belts have a huge gouge in the plastic where the belt comes out? Mine is quite large, the belt has cut a good centimeter out of the part. Does anyone know how much this part is from ford?

Just to confuse everyone, my car is a feb 99 model Fairmont, Cruise, power windows front and back. No seat belt adjustment.
My mums car is an oct 99 model Forte. No cruise, front power windows, and seat belt adjustment. Why would they have them in the low series but not the high series?

There was an upgrade in 10/99 on the forte range etc. they got smartshield (coded keys) and there were a few other things as well, that might be one of those things they did.
Front power windows and stuff like that might be part of the upgrade too

just searching on the net and there was an "upgrade" in may 99. This might be it cos it seems to tie in to when some people have them, I know the classic range was released 10/99...
another clue might be the different keys (non coded smartlock to coded smartshield) my wifes 9/98 futura has the ef/el key amy 10/99 has the same as series 2 and wont start if I used my el base key.

Thanks UK, but this one was one of my first, in 2007. It was one heck of a thread mine! Christmas was great, and thank God we didn't get both our AUs golf balled with the hail storms we had. GK
