Re: Seatbelt button
They all do that sir.
You could temporarily borrow a rear one if they’re not being used. They’re on my list to reproduce, but some way out yet.

Re: Upgrade from hub to no hub

Re: Coat hangers
I looked at making repro’s but it’s the material that’s the problem. It’s a soft rubber.

Welcome aboard! What year car is it?
There's only 2 CEM's - The CEM1 and the CEM3.
