I want to see it first :stirthepot:

I'm down to try
send me PM with info

In for pictures. After pictures might be interested

Bumping this. Also, I would pay for a few color samples to be seen in person. A lot of interest in this from this board, make it happen!

New belts came in, ready to sent for color changed belts. Who wants to be the first? I'll need your original cores, not lock or damaged. If not need a core charge on them. Core charge is $500. If you sent me your original belts in good condition I'll refund you the core charge.

Keep me updated , I'll try and grab pictures of the process
Thanks man

OK

My driver side belt doesn't retract so well any more. It does fine for 90% of the retraction, but the last 10% almost has to be hand fed to take up the last bit slack. Would this be a problem for the core exchange? I wouldn't want someone else to get mine if the retract ability is tied to the core because I know I wouldn't want to get someone else's core that was in a similar condition.

All core will be inspected and tested. If any core have problem, will be returned. Jarblue the belts has to perfect working condition.

:tiphat:

how close does that green come to another very popular green color used for safety devices? I want that green. PM a quote please :)

PMed

Since this is such an important part of keeping me alive, what's the story on the cores we get with the new belts? Are they from other people's vehicles on this site? What kind of testing do you do on received cores?

What i don't understand tho, why don't they make them in a color other than black ?!
It's only a color .. just like black! why do we see them only in $$ sport cars ?

Money

Yep. It's usually a pretty pricey upgrade, at least on Porsche.

See Post #53 for his response. Who knows what the testing actually entails though :ugh:

He never addressed my question earlier in the thread regarding reusing the hardware. Hopefully that bolt isn't torque-to-yield.

Here are the 2 pages from the manual with all of the bolts and torque values indicated.

There is no "X" symbol next to the hardware like in the image below. So that tells me they expect you to reuse them if they aren't damaged. And 36 ft-lbs isn't very much anyway.

Good find, thanks. The seatbelt is one part where I'm not going to be taking any chances.

Just keep in mind this is for the 2013 Z, so make sure to check for whatever year you have. It shouldn't be different, but like you said, you'll want to get this right.

Another red done ready to ship out.

:yum:

Got a 2k upgrade.....lol well thats for a Porsche if you upgrade to a red seatbelt.
This cost a fraction of it if you do a DIY.
Just installed today.

Not the best pictures looks better in person.

We even have the same seat , looking good man
Did the walkthrough help ?
Anything else you can add or did I miss a step ?

With my Sparco seats I cut off the seat belt extender thing on the top and the belts retract way better

Your thread install was perfect. I used a long nose pliers to pull the sensor while pressing with a screwdriver on the side.

I was about to ask you about that seatbelt extender how did you cut it? Can you take a picture?
Yeah it does interfere with the way the belts slide.
Im afraid the seatbelt would not function when needed because of the seat pressing on the extender.

I just used a pair of dykes/wire cutters and cut the belt out
As for where it attaches on the top bolt ,it has a lock washer that you can hold with plyers and just back the bolt out
It looks like this
