Seat belt plays an important role in our automotive life.
But what is that little round button on the belt?
A detail? Not so sure!
This is what Alain, a mechanic for 35 years and involved in road safety, will explain to us.
And you will see that this simple little button is essential in our everyday lives.
The seat belt button is used for this See:
1. a button the same color as the seat belt

We wear the seat belt every day: it has become mechanical.
So much so that we don’t even pay attention to how it is produced.
But have you noticed that it often has some kind of little plastic button?
It is the same color as the fabric of the belt and is therefore not always identifiable.
And yet, there it is!
And it’s one of the most practical “gadgets” in the car, like that buckle on the belt.
You will understand right away if I tell you right after what it is for.
2. this button is actually a stop button

Oh no, this button is not decorative!
It has a real function. It is actually a stop button.
But what exactly does it stop?
Conclusion: Today, it’s a must!
4. add or change easily at the push of a button

Don’t have this little miracle device on the belt of an old car?
Unless it’s just broken.
Don’t panic!
Please note that modifying or adding is very simple;.
All retailers, garages and specialist shops offer them. You can even find them on the Internet.
All you have to do is attach the button to the belt using a small hole punch.
And there you have it!
You’ll never search for your belt buckle again!
Simply the metal buckle that allows you to attach the seat belt.
If it wasn’t there, the buckle would fall to the floor of the car and slide along the fabric.
Result: we had to search for it every time and fumble around before we could get a hold of it.
Luckily, this little button stops its fall. So the buckle always remains within reach.
And we don’t waste time searching everywhere for them unnecessarily.
This invention is brilliant, isn’t it?
3. a northern European invention

But who had this brilliant idea of creating a button on the seat belt?
Because it sounds so silly, but this kind of thing makes everyday life easier.
Actually, we don’t really know who invented it;. But the correspondence is between the Mercedes and Volvo brands.
These two car manufacturers are pioneers in innovation for passenger comfort and safety.
And this little invention did not go unnoticed, because it was praised by all the other brands.
Conclusion: Today, it’s a must!
