SEATBELT BUCKLE STOPPER
I just got back from a long road trip and one of the most annoying things that happened was that little bit of plastic, the one that stops the seatbelt buckle from sliding all the way down to the floor. Well I lost it.
What a pain, every time I would go too put the seatbelt on the buckle would slide down to some inaccessible gap between the chassis and the door.
I never realized before how useful this little tiny object is, so after making a new one on the printer and fitting it I have decided to share the files just in case any of you have also lost yours.
To fit it:
Push the back plate through the seatbelt in the same place as the old one was then put the front plate on and warm up a pocket knife blade just to melt the protruding part of the pin, try and flatten it out neatly so it holds the 2 parts together.
Simple but can avoid a nervous breakdown
Print in ABS if possible for strength or the latest Fiber Force carbon filament if you have some Print time is a couple of minutes Use a very fine layer height and 50% infill to get a good solid pin.
