o/t wheelchair accessible repairer in the area?

Our work vehicle has a damaged seatbelt that is worn by the person sitting in the wheelchair. Also, the clip is broken too.

I'm over in this vehicle for a couple of days and can bring it back next week too, as long as I can find somewhere to fix it! I've been let down once (having driven it down to London!) and have only one more lead, so if anyone knows anything in the Morecambe area (+/- 50 miles!)

Just had a quick search and Thorntrees Garage near Preston specialises in accessible vehicles. Don't really know anything about them but might be worth contacting to see if they'll do the repairs.

From second link:
With 30 years experience in the transport industry Thorntrees Garage has its own workshop where maintenance work can be done for our customers VAT free for wheelchair users.

The only other thing I can think of is to ring Dialabus 01524 844944 and see what they do when they have similar problems they might even have an on site mechanic.
