Thanks, I didn’t think about the seatbelt getting chewed up.

I haven't been able to find any alternatives. Anybody use anything similar?
I searched and couldn't find anything either
DM your mailing address. Pretty sure I offered mine to you a while ago, if you're still interested. We just never connected at Laguna again

Or as an alternative I found this - CINCH Seat Belt Tensioner from
https://www.cravenspeed.com/cinch-seat-belt-tensioner/
Anyone used this? Is it any good?
CINCH is absolute garbage. It flat out doesn't work at all. I bought one to try.

I made something that works decently, I'll admit not as good as CG Lock, but it's a heck of a lot cheaper!

This isn't an issue IME.

Thanks for the advice on the CINCH - I didn’t understand how it could hold the seatbelt like the CG Lock, apparently it doesn’t.

I was able to find a used CG Lock, although simply locking the seatbelt may work the best.
