Seatbelts are covered under TSO-C114. They should be listed as a life limited item in Chapter 4 of your AMM. For instance, in our Columbia 400, they need to be replaced every 3000 hours or 10 years.

Myself and a co-worker are planning on getting our instrument ratings in our company's Columbia 400 (once it comes back from avionics upgrades in 2 weeks), but we are having a difficult time finding an instructor in the area. A couple of the instructors we had lined up have moved on to other...

If you do have to repair it, and the repair requires the removal of the TKS panel, you will also need a new TKS panel. Once removed the panel cannot be reused as the panels sustain damage during the removal process.

Unfortunately, at the moment, we are not looking to extend beyond our current STC on the 210 line.

Definitely NOT recommended!!!
