bstone Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 97 Legacy Outback Wagon AT. The rear seat belt buckle receptacle seem to be specific to the metal fittings. The receptacle for the middle rear seat won't accept the metal fitting of the belt next to it even tho they look the same. This is annoying when I've got people in the back and one of the receptacles has slipped under the seat and there's no time to find it. Is there a way to make them all work? Some sort of universal receptacle? Magic spells? Herbal medicine? BTW, I'm using language the stewardesses say on airplanes cause I'm not totally sure what the different parts are called.

dp213 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 You would have to replace both parts of the center seat belt. There are different styles in different subarus. It's the matter of finding the correct one that matches the other belts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster2 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 In lie of changing seat belts, you might want to consider adding a color sticker to both the buckle and latch receptacle for a correct match up. That would show the seat belt wearer that the correct color match up is necessary to get the buckle to lock in to the latch receptacle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somick Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Buckle them up and they will not slip under the seat. If your passenger looses it is his or her fault... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
