We've never had that work very well because the tension + vibrations will inevitably cause the bolts to slide back into the non-tensioned position. That's been our experience with that style anyways. Works for a few matches then we have to do it all over again, turns into a big pain.
I would like to ask the OP on how well the back of those belts slide against that plastic. Is the friction pretty much negligible?
