Purpose and Function in the Safety System

The presented rear left seat belt buckle operates as the final element of the seat belt fastening, responsible for secure lock engagement and stable belt retention during driving. Its placement on the vehicle is the rear seat on the left side, allowing for precise fitting to the specific mounting location in the Mini R61 model.

As a part of the Seat Belts and Parts category, the buckle contributes to a complete passenger protection system, influencing:

• correct guidance and locking of the seat belt during normal driving and sudden braking,
• maintaining predictable safety system behavior according to the manufacturer's design specifications,
• stable mounting at the factory mounting point on the rear left side of the vehicle.

Compatibility and Fit for Mini

The buckle has been developed specifically for the Mini brand, which translates to factory fit with the interior and proper cooperation with the original seat belt. This means that installation does not require structural modifications or adapter mounts.

The element features dedicated manufacturer markings and assigned replacement numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with a specific equipment version. In practice, this means that when selecting parts, you can use both the main number and reference numbers to confirm full compatibility with a given Mini R61 unit.

Performance Characteristics and Installation

As a used part, the seat belt buckle retains a construction consistent with Mini's factory standards. The latch mechanism is designed to ensure:

• secure seat belt fastening with a clearly audible click,
• stable retention of the belt tongue in the buckle receptacle during driving,
• quick release capability using the release button.

Its placement on the rear left side of the vehicle allows for direct installation at the mounting point designated by the manufacturer. When replacing, it is recommended to follow the disassembly and assembly sequence according to Mini's service documentation, taking into account the tightening torques of the mounting screws and checking the correct belt routing relative to the seat and backrest.

Application in Service and Post-Accident Repairs

The Mini R61 Seat Belt Buckle Rear Left is particularly suitable for situations where the safety system has deployed, the buckle mechanism has been damaged, or due to wear and tear. Replacing this element is important, among other things, after:

• collisions with seat belt activation,
• detection of play or insecure fastening of the belt tongue in the buckle,
• mechanical damage to the housing or release button.

Choosing an original buckle dedicated to Mini ensures consistency with other safety system components and reduces the risk of installation problems or incorrect mechanism operation.
