Availability of extended length safety belts |
Background |
For those customers whose body size results in their not being able to buckle the original equipment safety belt and reach the instrument panel controls while in their normal seating position, extended length safety belts are available.
These safety belts should only be fitted when absolutely necessary and requested for use only by a specific customer. The OE specified belt should be used in all other circumstances in order to provide the best protection for most occupants. Advise the owner to have the OE belt(s) reinstalled prior to selling the car. The owner must sign a special order form available from the Parts Sales Support Specialists in Norcross.
