Linz Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Or if you are lucky, find someone who is doing a different colour re-trim that red doesn't go with (like I did), and swap. They come up on here very occasionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icegeezer Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 there only worth what a buyer is willing to pay...I can understand people not wanting to pay a lot for parts they may already have.but I think this comes down to demand & supply...im not sure if the red seatbelts were in anything else but the gti, but this on its own makes them rare and thus demand a better price - No?just my two pence worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_273 Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 The other thing to remember is that used belts are cheap for a reason.Second hand belts might have come from a crashed GTI. If the pre-tensioners went off in the crash then the belts might be damaged and will no longer protect you so well in an accident! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
