As I'm sure you know OEM is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you.

Just curious,because it would"hide" the cutout/insert behind the belt a little more.
Just being curiously anal..not nitpicking your install.haha

It would actually be ideal if the cut-out could be slightly farther forward the front of the vehicle. Maybe another half inch, maybe three quarters of an inch or so.

However, on the backside of the panel the front-most part of my cut-out is running into one of the snap-fasteners that hold the panel on. In fact, I cut right into a small part of the plastic extrusion which holds the fastener. Any further and you lose that plastic extrusion and fastener. Which wouldn't be a big deal, but it is the fastener right on that corner. If you lose it, I am not sure how well the panel would hold. And that spot is right where the panel would lift up and get caught on something going into the backseat. Or just lift up and look like ass.

I've still got my tester-panels, I can take a pic for you tomorrow from the backside. You'll see what I mean.

I also need to get the drivers side panels back off. But I am not doing that until I run by Harbor Freight or Auto-stoned and pick up a couple different sized panel puller tools. I re-attached my panels and used all the fasteners. Every one of them, I had a bunch of spares from the scrapyards. Probably the first time I have used all the fasteners since it was new. But.....on the drivers side I need to shave just a bit more material from the belt-route below the new trim rings. The passenger side retracts just fine, my drivers side needs a little bit of assistance to retract. No problems to fix once I pull the panels. Just gonna shave a bit more material from the opening with the box cutter razor.

He has a lot of interior stuff but more for B14's than B13's. I just saw a NIB OEM set of 4 G20 Floor Mats for P10 for $26 plus $16 shipping.

Emgee Parts


Would you mind letting me know his shop address, my workplace is less than five miles from that town I would rather drive there rather than have things shipped. You can pm me if that's more appropriate. Thanks.

I don't have his local info, best suggestion I can think of is contact the owner through the store - emgeeparts on eBay
Good luck!

I contacted him a couple years ago, and he said he was some place off roberts road but i have no more detail. Strangely he has no items for sale at all on ebay now. My luck has not been good lately.

Any pics or explanation for getting the seatbelt spool to not interfere with installing the lower interior trim panel. And any pics or explanation of what to do with the attached metal belt glide clip and 2 lateral bolts?
