Wouldn't be too sure about the seat belts not being "adjustable " if they are slow to retract. I've tightened plenty in the past by tightening the recoil spring, although not on an FFRR.
Mine are very slow to recoil also so I might get round to having a look one day.

It happens to most cars at the end of the day. As the springs get weaker the seat belts retract slowly No longer FF owner but still interested. Present car Jaguar XE

I read on another forum that they tend to get stiff and fill full of fluff.. Might be worth having a look and using some furniture polish to lubricate it..

I'd be careful with that. Otherwise you might end up looking quite spiffy at the next business meeting with racing stripes on your clothes... Laughing
