Cessna Headrest Seatbelt Guide

[David Underwood]

Hi All,

I have a T206H - the Passenger Briefing Cards for the plane clearly show a headrest seatbelt guide, and I can't find it. It's not in the POH, I've messed with the headrests, and I can't even find a replacement part for it online. Image attached.

Does this thing exist? Would make the restraints a lot more comfortable, the co-pilot side angle really irritates my wife.

Thanks,
Dave

I wonder if something like this could be used https://mossmotors.com/seat-belt-guides

Most of this kind of stuff for Cessna came from Ford or Chrysler cars of the planes era. Be on the look out for cars of your planes vintage. Start scanning Chrysler/Ford interior pics from the era and likely find what you have.

They've certainly existed for some years of the restart 172 and 182 as I've had to deal with them a few times. However I can't precisely recall which years, though. If you go to www.vanbortel.com and check out the 1998 and 2000 182S pictures, you can see them on the rear seats.

Edit: You can also see them in the 4th photo of this 1998 T206H: https://www.trade-a-plane.com/searc...del=T206H&listing_id=2381069&s-type=aircraft#

Yes. Call Cessna Support to see if fits on pilot/copilot seats.

Thanks all! @Bell206 that's the thing, and they're *only* $115 each from Airpower I'll try swapping the headrests around, and probably give Cessna a call to be safe.

Have I been doing this too long that that price initially struck me as unusually cheap for Textron part?

I'm just numb to it. Last month was $250 to replace one knob on the G1000...
