Hello

Has this car been in a heavy front impact?

It looks as if the seatbelt pre-tensioner has been deployed. You get that activation in an accident.

Classic sign of a car not to buy, it just isn't worth fixing.

You can see this is what it should look like in a car that hasn't been in an accident.


THIS is the part you need (check the correct side) ;)


But if the pre-tensioner has been deployed, this is probably going to be only one of the things that make it uneconomical to return to the road.

This is the car that had the airbags deployed and the airbag ECU replaced isn't it?
