seat belts...

hey

my driver's seat belt no longer likes to retract. Sometimes i can get it to retract when i feed it back in. Does any one know where i might be able to get a new seat belt retractor unit (not sure what its called--the thing that the belt rolls up into.

Thanks

Kris

Mine does that too. I just pile the belt on the seat when I get out.

pick-n-pull

My belt was frayed badly, I found one in much better condition at a local pick-n-pull.
