Vehicle Application and Placement
The presented seat belt buckle latch has been specifically designed for the Skoda Yeti 5L model and operates in the rear cabin area. The design is intended for installation on both the right and left sides, making it easier to select the correct part for interior repairs.
Thanks to its factory-matched fit to the rear bench seat, the correct belt routing geometry is maintained, and the buckle works in conjunction with the standard retractors and body mountings. This is important for restoring the full functionality of the safety system after a collision, replacing seats, or upgrading the interior.
Construction and Technical Function
The buckle latch is responsible for mechanically locking the seat belt tongue and its quick release upon pressing the button. The internal locking mechanism is designed to withstand the loads encountered during sudden braking and the activation of passive safety systems.
The original construction ensures:
- correct cooperation with the factory seat belt of the Skoda Yeti 5L,
- stable mounting to the seat structure or body,
- appropriate rigidity and resistance to multiple fastening and unfastening cycles,
- maintenance of the manufacturer's designed operating characteristics under load.
Part Condition and Service Application
The part is from a disassembly and is offered as a used original Skoda part, allowing for economical repairs while maintaining factory specifications. This type of component is particularly useful for:
- buckle mechanism damage after a collision or pretensioner activation,
- replacement of the complete seat belt set for the rear bench,
- interior or seat swaps within the Yeti 5L model.
Using an original latch minimizes the risk of fitting issues, mounting play, or incorrect operation under load, which is important for both user comfort and passenger safety.
