Bull****. I've taken apart those belts, there is nothing to be reset or calibrated. Especially if you're getting a new set. I can see how you may have to unwind and rewind a set that has been retracted all the way but even that is not a huge job. And there is definitely no need to disconnect the battery either. They are pulling your leg big time.
this is the whole reason many people who are not in the know, sell these cars.
they get raped big time by the dealer.
this seat belt story is small potatoes compared to some of the things I know people have been taken for at the local dealer.
How about $1,900 for wiper blades, oil change and thorough look over. (993 cab) - this person sold the car after that
or 3k to replace a fuel pump, 10 hour diagnosis, when all it really need was a sensor. (964C4) - this person now goes to a trusted independent

Some of us are lucky to have a good dealer with guys that do know the 993's. Plus we have 2 independant shops (at least) that are also very good.
Now on the BMW side it's another story....

OK guys.... Anyone that is looking to go with red or yellow seat belts stand by for a week. I have found a DIY for swapping out the black webbing for red, yellow or many other colors. I have ordered the webbing and button stops and should have it in a few days. This looks like a 3 on a 10 scale for difficulty. If all works out we should be able to do both front belts for under $100. The webbing is the same auto makers use. Stand by....... I'll start a new thread with my finding and photos.
