Rear Centre Seat Belt Buckle for BYD Seal 05 & Qin PLUS, OE 12097571-00

This part carries two references, OE 12097571-00 and HAD-5812050. If the buckle you are removing shows either number, this is the right listing. If it shows a third number, work from that number rather than the shape of the part, since the centre buckle and the outer ones are separate items. This listing covers the Seal 05 and the Qin PLUS, so check the number stamped on the old buckle before you place the order.

Yes. This buckle is marked safety critical, which is the clearest instruction on the page to use a qualified technician. A centre restraint has to be checked for correct latching and release after fitting, and that is workshop work rather than driveway work. We supply the part as New against OE 12097571-00, and everything from removal to the final check sits with whoever works on the car. Get the booking made first, so the part is not sitting in a box for weeks.

The delivery time is 8 to 25 days, from order to door. Plan the fitting date around the delivery time. Packed, it travels as a standard box with no special handling, and the packaging details are on this page. If the matching centre belt is being changed at the same time, put both on one order so a single delivery covers the work.

Metal is the material for this part, and the condition is New. A metal body gives the part real weight for its size, which is a fair sanity check when you set it beside the one taken off the car. Delivery takes 8 to 25 days from your order to your door. If the item in your hand reads as neither 12097571-00 nor HAD-5812050, do not fit it.

This is the centre buckle at the rear of the car, mounted inside the cabin. It is fitted in a centre position rather than a left or right one, so there is no pair to pick from and no handed alternative to confuse it with. The outer rear buckles are separate items under their own OE numbers. If you are unsure which buckle has failed, check the OE number on the old part before you order, or compare it against the fitment table on this page.

None has been sourced for this OE number. What the page carries is the Original/Genuine buckle from BYD, priced on this page as the only version available. Where an aftermarket equivalent has been set up, both tiers appear together, so a single entry means the second source is absent rather than hidden. This buckle is also marked safety critical. If you want the alternatives looked into for your own car, ask through the quote route on this page with 12097571-00 to hand.
