WTB: W115 Rear Seat Belts

So....just bought a W115 and I need something to hold the kids in place in the back seat. Pfft. Like we needed those when we were kids.

Anyway, I only need the bottom buckles and only the passenger and driver side. No need for the center one.

Thanks and let me know what you have.

Have you pulled up the rear seat bottom to make sure the belts aren't hiding underneath? You pull straight up at the bottom-front of the seat and it should pop up. Then you pull it slightly forward to clear the seat-back. No tools are required. My reason for asking is that it seems odd to be missing just a few parts of the belts. And all w115s came with rear belts, as far as I know.

Mine had belts in the rear which I was not comfortable with, in terms of safety. So I bought simply aftermarket waist belts from the local car parts store. They cost $15 each and you don't have to worry about deteriorating webbing or anything like that. Replacing them was easy as the new ones came with hardware that matched the existing holes in the car. Not sure about the age of your kids, but simply waist belts are some of the safest ways to anchor car seats. Better than the "latch" system which typically maxes out at 40 lbs (my 3 y.o. weighed that much when he was 2). Good luck.

I bought a set of lap belts from Amazon to get by. I have a 5 year old still in a car seat and an 8 year old that's nearly 5 feet tall. Hoping to get them secure in the 115. I think the diff on my 300TD is going and need to drive the 115 for now.
