ouch, I believe they are unobtainium, I have two kicking about the car, also snapped off.
I wonder if someone could 3D print them?

I think 'Arthy' drilled a small hole into each piece and inserted a steel pin, then glued itnigel poustie wrote: ↑Tue Jun 02, 2020 3:37 pmClean snapped through the middle

super glue won't cut it, too much stress, and it's shiny palstic with a very low surface tension, not as bad as Poly Prop or Polyethylene

This guy has 3D printed ones for sale but about £40 direct from Shapeways
https://www.shapeways.com/shops/volvo-480-spare-parts
Daniel Lindenburg from the 480 Facebook group has also posted some for sale in the past
Sounds as though you should be able to drill and pin it as Alan says

Re: Wanted Seat belt arm extender
There are some people who have bought all the remaining stock of the Volvo dealers, and sell them for inflated prices. Not mentioning any names, those who wander the forums and Facebook groups know who they are.

Re: Wanted Seat belt arm extender
Sorry Nigel - I have checked my stock of spares and I could help you out with a driver's side arm, but not a passenger side one. That's just Sod's Law in play I guess!
Good luck with repair efforts; as others have said it will need more than just glueing…

Re: Wanted Seat belt arm extender
you can some times repair them but need to use proper plastic weld or add some pins and glue.
Can you post a picture of broken arm ?
