I did a search but didn't see any posts showing the disassembly/reassembly/restoration of the female seat belt receivers. Mine are pictured below. I've ordered new stickers but would like to replate the screws on the back and the main steel portion (mine were very corroded where they bolt into the car; I put POR15 on them a couple of years ago but I'd rather disassemble, media blast and replate the whole thing). Any advice based on past experience with disassembly/reassembly would be much appreciated (as always).

@Mikey914 Mark, I didn't know that you carry the stickers or I'd have asked you to put them in with my visors (still in transit). Mine are from Pelican (I believe made by Carbone). They look nice to me but I've since been made aware that they are not a perfect reproduction because the 'R' is incorrect (see pic below the sticker next to the original). The image on your website also looks the same. If possible, it might be a good idea for you to change the R and not only have the best price but also the most correct replacement.

Now what kind of anal retentive a-hole would even notice such a thing? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) |

Yeah, but the Ss look pretty good. No, the ‘S’ is not right either. The transition from top to bottom is too smooth. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
