If you can post a pict that would help

We should ask Ed, but I think the leather dummy key project is on hold.

It looks like this. The adjustment is on the side which could make it a little tricky.

This is it, right? Neat idea really. But how does it slap into things -- wouldn't it be clipped in place whenever you are driving?

It stays on the belt, but the small lever on the side is lifted to adjust tension once you're buckled in. The problem is, the G Lock weighs a fair bit and when you get out of the seat, it can slam into the seat or door trim. In my mind, I was thinking of something like a leather money clip design. It could clip over the G Lock, but still be easily removed.

Thanks Tom for posting that !!
Very informative …. I have never seen that …
Interesting …
Anyone know what these cost ?
I would need one in order to actually see how it can be covered. I think the OP was referring to when it’s released ( it’s a bit bulkier now that it has this item on the seatbelt itself which one released goes back to the door area?)
Best

Well, they WERE $50. But it appears the company is now out of business. I would have bought you one to play around with, Eddie. But it doesn't make sense to design something that's no longer available.

@Crazy Eddie Many thanks to Ed for the Leather Inner Door Sills, Bolster Covers, and Seat Belt retaining rings. He was very gracious to offer to exchange the Shark Blue stitching Bolsters Covers, and Seat Belt Retaining rings which I ordered prior to my GT3's arrival only to discover that Porsche switched my stitching color to Speed Blue.

His materials and workmanship are without a doubt oem quality!
