    Another seat belt tensioner question?

    I think alot of people have the same problem: My tensioners all 4 of them dont tension at all. Is it possible to fix them somehow?

    Only thing I know about is the situation where the retract-when-the-door-opens button gets stuck. On my two-door, neither front belt would retract at all when I first got the car, but removing the button thing and cable made them work fine. Though come to think of it, it's supposedly the cable that's problematic, and four-door front belts don't have the cable. Hm.

      Strange on my 2 door the button broke off. Had to jam the cable up in the cables sheath to get the retract to work. Now it works door open or closed.

        ^^^ I had not seen that! I wonder if it works on a Cavalier seatbelt that quit retracting, as opposed to spending $95 on a replacement like we did?

          Thinking about it some maybe I did pull the cable out and lock it in that position using a locking sleeve. Tried to find a replacement but seems the 2 door panthers are unique.

            why is that NOT a sticky?
