Hi all

The wife has a Citroen C3 2014 reg.

The driver's seat belt is beginning to fray on the edge (nothing major) and will need replacement soon.

Spares seem to be available on line (dealers charge £350!). Has anyone changed one over? It has the integrated pre-tensioner in the reel and I am not sure what the correct procedure is.

Was thinking of disconnecting the battery, waiting half an hour then swapping them over. Dont want to run into problems with the airbag computer etc or fault codes.

Thanks

Chris

Hi

Are you sure the pre tensioner is in the reel? The usual place for them on previous models is in the latch and attached to the seat.

I can check when I get to the documentation later today.
