    Hi all,

    not sure, whether this was posted before?

    Fix for better seatbelt retraction from the french forum.

    For the ones registered at forum.micro-roadster.de you can also read about it here or download a PDF describing the fix in more detail (well, in german ;))

    Both instructions include a lot of pictures, so it should be understandable.

    I believe AdamK tried the thin piece of plastic film before, but said it wasn't great. Interested to see how sanding could help.

    Sanding takes off the rubber coating of the turning block (?) so that the seatbelt slides over the blank metal.
    Same principle as the plastic film I suppose.
