06 Coupe Seatbelt Height Adjustment?
I know that this topic has been brought up many times in the past, and I've searched, but none of the solutions mentioned in some of the threads do not satisfy me.
Looking at the mounting point, it does look like some sort of height adjustment is possible. I've looked in the owner's manual, but could not find a way to do the adjustment.
I was just browsing through the 06 coupe brochure and this was mentioned under "Standard Feature-> Safety: 3-point height-adjustable front seat belts with pretensioners and load limiters, driver's seat Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) and passenger's seat ELR and Automatice Locking Retractor (ALR)"
Has anybody with an 06 coupe been able to adjust the seatbelt height or is this a misprint?

Speaking of seat belts, did you guys see this for the new BMW 3-series Coupe (maybe the 6-series has it too, no idea):

Buckling up in the new BMW 3 Series Coupe, both the driver and front passenger benefit from the newly developed belt feeder arm: The seat belt integrated in the B-pillar, moved back in typical coupe fashion, is automatically “delivered” to the driver and front passenger once they close the door and once the key has been inserted into the ignition slot. Connected to the seat occupancy detector, the passenger-side belt feeder arm is only activated when the front passenger has actually taken a seat. With the belt delivery unit housed conveniently within the side panels, this new system does not impair the elegant look of the interior.
I looked at mine today and it appears that they can move down, there is a slot (channel)there for the thing to move down, the damn thing just wont move..

Anybody got this working???
Nothing says Honda Civic than a bright red seat belt pad on a stock seat belt.
Anyhow, on my '06 sedan, you just grab the "****" where the upper mount point is and pull it out and then slide the belt up or down. There is about 6-8" of range you can adjust to.
If someone snaps a pic of the coupe setup, i can see if it's the same as the sedans.
