Hi All,

I have noticed that my safety belt on a W203 C Coupe does not slide is normally as it should, I have been in loads of cars and can say that when satfety belts are unlocked, the strap should faster back into place all by itself.

With my car, I have to manually use my hands to guide the safety belt back into its compartment, does anyone know what to do here ?

Also, Can I confirm that a manual W203 coupe wing mirror non auto folding can be manually folded. As reading this forum shows that its not possible to fold manual mirrors.

Also, someone stupidly broke my mirrors and the mirror frame is a litte damaged, was wondering Can i buy a folder N/S mirror frame for a manual one.

One member with the same fault did improve the seat belt a little, by removing the cover on B pillar, and spraying some PTFE into the roller.

I can see no reason why the folding mirror frame should not be OK, you do not need the motors and the do lock into place
