Anybody know if the 1996+ model 850s or V70s used a 'ratcheting' type of seat belt in the rear seats? I believe it's called ALR and what usually happens is if you pull the rear seat belt out all the way, it will ratchet back in and lock in place. It's a mode thats used for installing child car seats. I don't have them on my '95 and I'm forced to use a locking clip on my son's car seat. If you've ever used a locking clip you know how much of a PITA they can be. Im wondering if an ALR-type tensioner can be safely retrofit into a '95?

Thanks!

 

I know the 98 70 series uses it.

 

I wonder if I can buy a new tensioner from a V70 and pop it into my 850?

 

I think they might mount the same.But not 100% positive.You would have to see if the dealer had both so you could match up and see.

 

That's a great idea! Thanks tech!
