Land Rover Part Number: MXC5489 - Left-Hand Active Front Seat Belt Assembly - Non Audible - Hard Top
MXC5489 is a left-hand active front seat belt assembly specified for hard-top Defender models within VIN range EA354678 to KA924692. The unit uses an inertia-reel mechanism that permits normal movement while seated but locks and ratchets to restrain the occupant during sudden deceleration. This is a non-audible assembly and does not include a seat belt warning buzzer circuit. The same assembly is also used as a rear forward-facing belt across Defender models and as a rear belt on Defender 130 models up to 1993; it supersedes part number BTR4373. Replace after impact events or where retraction and locking behaviour becomes compromised, and when refitting always confirm anchor points and routing match the original installation.
