SEAT EXEO / EXEO ST REAR SEAT BELT BUCKLE

Component Specification

Why Choose a Factory-Produced Used Component?

A quality used factory-produced component was manufactured for the vehicle platform's original engineering requirements. Correct geometry, mounting points, latch dimensions and material specification are particularly important with restraint-system components.

Cheap pattern copies can vary in construction quality, tolerances and fit. With an original factory-produced used component, buyers can retain the specification intended for the vehicle while avoiding the cost of purchasing the equivalent component brand new.

⚠ Body Variant Matters

Source Listing Compatibility References

The donor listing's compatibility data identifies the following vehicle families. This is a reference table, not a substitute for VIN/part-number verification.

Physical Location Reference

The buckle assembly is positioned within the rear passenger seating area and secured to the vehicle's designed restraint mounting structure. Its purpose is to receive and mechanically retain the corresponding seat-belt tongue as part of the occupant restraint system.

⛔ WILL NOT FIT / DO NOT ASSUME COMPATIBILITY

• Any vehicle where the original stamped number does not match the required specification.
• Any visually similar buckle with a different suffix or mounting arrangement.
• Any model outside the verified Exeo 3R platform without manufacturer confirmation.
• Any 3-door application — none is claimed by this listing.
• Any vehicle whose VIN identifies a different restraint-system specification.
• Do not assume compatibility across production revisions or specification changes.

Professional Installation Information

Typical Tools

• Appropriate metric socket/bit set
• Trim removal tools where required
• Calibrated torque wrench
• Suitable workshop lighting
• Manufacturer repair/torque specification

Typical Workshop Procedure

1. Confirm VIN, replacement part number and mounting position before dismantling.
2. Follow manufacturer safety procedures for the restraint system.
3. Move/remove the required rear-seat trim or cushion only as specified by the workshop manual.
4. Locate the existing buckle mounting point.
5. Disconnect any applicable electrical connection only where the vehicle specification uses one.
6. Remove the specified restraint-system fastener.
7. Compare the removed component directly with replacement 3R0857739A.
8. Install in the correct orientation without twisting or trapping associated components.
9. Tighten the mounting fastener to the manufacturer-specified torque — never guess the torque value.
10. Reassemble removed trim/seat components.
11. Perform the manufacturer-prescribed restraint-system and buckle function checks before returning the vehicle to service.

Returns & Correct-Part Verification

Buyers are strongly urged to compare the listing's high-resolution photographs, mounting arrangement and exact stamped part number with the component removed from their vehicle.
