Hi guys. I am owner of this Pagoda and in process of restoring at the moment. As you can see , I installed seatbelts as I do on each of my MB Pagoda . That is main reason for adding that cover, to hide seatbelts mechanism and it looks more finished to me . That seat it’s hardly used and very unsafe. If someone is to use it , takes 30 seconds to take cover and put it inside trunk.
