The little black lever on the door post is the seatbelt tensioner. It allows a slightly less tension on the seatbelt when you are wearing it, to allow you to move forward easier (like reaching into the glovebox).

More tension when door is open, to help retract the belt when you take it off. Isn't Toyota thoughtful ?

The should have spent MORE TIME getting the BHG problem solved.

By the way, after owning my supra for 6 years, and moderating this forum for about 3 yrs, I have determined that the headgaskets will go bad (leak again, even just a tiny bit) about every 3 yrs, or 20k miles.

I will do a thread on my findings soon, so look for it, I will sticky it in the general section.
