The assembly mounts beneath the rear seat bench at the vehicle’s right-hand second-row seating position. On a UK right-hand-drive vehicle this is commonly described as OSR or driver-side rear.

What the Buckle Does
The buckle receives and mechanically locks the seat-belt tongue, securing the rear occupant to the vehicle’s restraint system. Pressing the red button releases the tongue. The mounting eye transfers restraint loads to the vehicle body during sudden braking or a collision.
