I don’t remember who posted this picture, but it helped me (and it’s correct). The parts on the left are under the strut bearing, the parts to the right are above. Make sure the dust cover (second from left) is installed with the cup facing upward.

Thanks I read it. In the thread, there was discussion of worn out retractors and punching holes in the webbing (thus compromising it). 

I’ve been able to filter these out of my search if I want. When I input my search terms I can choose, under the filter “item location,” to search only Ebay Germany, or only sellers located in Germany, in Europe, or Worldwide.

Do you still get the foreign sellers if you don’t choose to see worldwide sellers?

Cheers,

Hi all,

Long time reader (lurker) new poster. I’ve had my 72 2002 since 2012.

Just a thought on this topic. Maybe it’s time to replace seatbelts when retractors wear out or webbing becomes frayed or otherwise compromised.

Along with good, working brakes and a securely attached steering wheel, seatbelts are kind of an important safety feature. This isn’t an area where I personally would save money or create makeshift solutions.

But then again we are all adults who can make our own choices.

Cheers,

Greg

I had a similar problem. After checking a lot of other connections (as described above), I finally jiggled the positive battery cable and the thing worked. I fixed the loose connection and haven’t had a problem since.
