1990 Fox (CitiGolf) seat belt buckles out of production

Post by VAG Fan »

Hi all,

The driver's seat belt buckle on our 1990 Fox has stopped working. I'm talking about the black receptacle with the red release button, bolted onto the base of the seat. I've tried lubrication, but it's actually jammed shut, so one can't get the belt into the clasp. (Not sure how my Ex actually got it OPEN... She said, "met baie geweld". :twisted: )

GW informs me that the part is out of production. If anyone (especially in the Pta East area) has a good tip, perhaps on a scrapyard, I'd be grateful...

Will look around for you.

Such a pity I had a set that went when I left KZN.
