Subject: Re: Need 9-3 seatbelt rf


As I was away for a time after posting my question. I will make the intention of my inquiry more specific - My question pertaining to the seatbelt was - directed at locating a quality part source in Canada other than dealership. And for the record I would never undermine the safety of anyone travelling in my car. I do take exception to this inference, especially in a public forum.
