Hi again, do any of you use these or similar whilst off road??
They hold your seat belt open to your size so you can put it on.
seat belt works exactely the same way. very handy in the high country.
These are from the aviation industry, but plenty of styles, plastic etc.

Never seen them before. What do you mean it holds the seatbelt to your size? How hard is to pull on the seatbelt is this for the lazy

once you clip in,, these hold the belt at that size, so you can put your belt on if on an angle or rough road.
basically holds belt open to your size, belts still works the same

Fair enough it can be difficult to impossible to get the seat belt when stopped on big hills

True some clubs insist on them but personally I think oh&s goes a little too far sometimes

If you're on a hill that's so steep ya seat belt won't come out though should you really be taking it off?

Seen these in plastic on the Navaras. They can be real handy when the belt locks. Used them before and personally like the black plastic ones but definitely a little known aid.

Work was supply these for use in our 4wd's

They stop the seat belt from re-windining. If you are on a hill - the seat belts can lock
