Seat Belt Buckle Purpose and Function

• maintaining operational ergonomics for daily fastening and unfastening of the belt.

Its original origin from the Volkswagen Group promotes compatibility with factory seat belts and interior trim elements, without the need for modifications or adjustments to the mountings.
