Removal Of Rear Seat Belt

Recommended Posts

2052006

Today I removed the n/s rear seat belt due to a nasty squeak it's been making for ages. Whilst trying to "fix" it, I broke it :ph34r:

 

Anyway, it's got rid of the annoying sqeaking it was making, but what happens at MOT time? Will I have to fit another? I've still got rear seats and the o/s rear belt is still fitted.

Scrap yard, any 205 or 106 will fit! Make sure you get the correct side though.

If a car was made with seat belts its is law to have them, unless you take the seats out then seat belts are not needed by law.

Sounds like I have to fit one then?

 

Are 106 ones exactly the same?

If you have seats you have to have belts. (well, in any car since about 1976 or something anyway)

I think the rear belts are 1986 ish but the fronts are needed alot earlier.It depends if you pull the rear seat out come mot time then they wont test them and youll be ok.

Yeah something like that, in the case of the rears, if the seats are there you have to have belts. So if you don't have the belts, whip the seats out and you'll be fine, perhaps with an advisory stating the seats are missing/weren't tested.
