Intended Use and Function in the Safety System
The presented seat belt buckle clip has been specifically designed for the Ford Ranger Wildtrak Mk6 model, taking into account the structural requirements of the seat and the factory safety system. This component is responsible for the stable fastening of the seat belt and proper interaction with pretensioners and passenger presence sensors, if provided in the specific vehicle configuration.
The vehicle location specified as front – left side clearly identifies the part's application and reduces the risk of errors when selecting a component for a specific installation point.
Construction and Fit for Ford Ranger Wildtrak Mk6
The buckle's construction is consistent with factory solutions used by Ford, which translates to:
- secure seat mounting – a properly designed attachment point to the seat structure,
- correct belt routing geometry – maintaining the proper working angle relative to the driver's shoulder and torso,
- compatibility with the factory seat belt – the correct shape of the buckle receptacle and tongue.
This ensures a predictable installation process, and after installation, the safety parameters specified by the vehicle manufacturer are maintained.
Condition, Origin, and Benefits of Choosing a Used Part
The offered buckle is from the original Ford line and is classified as a used part. Such components are often chosen by users who expect factory fitment and safety standards while optimizing service costs. A used OEM part is often a better alternative than aftermarket replacements of unverified quality.
Choosing an original seat belt buckle allows for:
- maintaining the integrity of the safety system – no interference with the seat or mounting structure,
- reducing the risk of diagnostic issues – less likelihood of SRS system errors resulting from incompatible parts,
- preserving vehicle value – using components that comply with factory specifications.
Application in Service, Repairs, and Modifications
The front left seat belt buckle is suitable for both standard replacement of a damaged part after a collision and for comprehensive interior restoration of the Ford Ranger Wildtrak Mk6. This is particularly important in commercial vehicles, where safety system reliability directly impacts driver comfort and compliance with fleet health and safety regulations.
