Wet seatbelt
Wet seatbelt
This one is baffling me a bit - drivers side seat belt keeps getting soaking wet (inside the holder). I can't figure where the water is getting in - it seems to be getting wet when the car is standing (heavy rainfall recently) rather than when driving about. It can't be the sunroof or the top of the door rubbers, or the hatch because they don't line up with the top of the seatbelt slot. Dies any one have any idea where th ewater might be getting in?<P>Thanks
Re: Wet seatbelt
probably your sunroof isn't draining properly or one of the drains is backed up or something..<P>The sunroof seal is not perfect, so there's sort of a catch basin around it, with drains at all 4 corners if I recall correctly. Might be that one of them is not working, and the water is finding it's way down there.. <P>Also consider how the belt sits when the door is closed, might be water is dripping on to it, and 'wicking' down the belt.. upper part of the belt dries off since it's hanging there in the air, but not so the belt in the holder.
{sigh} Time to move on

Re: Wet seatbelt
The sunroof drain sounds like a plausable cause from the symptoms I've got - I'll give that a good check over.<BR>Thanks 
Re: Wet seatbelt
OK - I'm thick - I can't see where the drains are or where they run to. Anyone know?
