Seat belt destroying your Recaros? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Velvetyone · 05-31-2015, 11:05 PM

I just bought my car on Super Bowl Sunday (yeah, yeah - while all the guys were home watching grown men play with one enlarged ball - unless there was some deflation activity going on

I was out buying my Camaro. There was no markings on my recaro's when I bought it, I took pictures of everything cuz I was so damn proud to finally have one! Now, 4 months later - there is that friction mark across my seat and I'm pissed. Poor design - wow, and Recaro signed off on this. Now what to do? Those little crochet thingies are a great idea!

Got mine installed and love them! Great job Terry's wife!

CChris1SS1LE · 06-01-2015, 10:46 PM

I don't drive mine that much and haven't noticed anything. In a year I have only 2900 miles

Get it fixed under warranty - that is what its there for...
I just lift my seat belt up and out when I put it on - no issues (so far)

I also bought a pair in black. They seem to work great. My seat began to wear after only 500 miles. Still fighting with Chevy over it.

Post up some pics! Thanks for the kind words, my wife (her name is Emma) loves to hear that stuff! She stuck a business card in the label too, please check out her other crochet stuff!

The images are coming through for me. I tried in 3 different browsers. Could you repost the pic?

Thanks! I used your solution. Great idea!

Here's my solution. I like OP's idea a lot too

Just to update, "LIFE" kinda crept up on Emma and I and we were a bit too busy to do much on here lately. Things have calmed down for now and we're hoping for a quiet summer. She's more than willing to make more of these - and with some color variety if there's interest. Just let me know!

I ordered a pair from Terry last week and when I got back from Las Vegas, the box was waiting for me. Super price and quick shipping. I will post a pic once I get my car out of storage in May.

Superman09 · 03-02-2016, 11:19 PM

woohoo I have been looking for this thread. I finally bought my 1LE, and I need a set of these. Sending you a PM
