Dear Ms. Black: This is in reply to your letter or July 18, 1973, regarding th applicability of Standard No. 302, 'Flammability of Interior Materials,' to a temporary sunvisor sleeve British Leyland plans for each of its 1974 model cars, to inform occupants about the seat belt interlock system.; The applicability of Standard No. 302 depends on whether th instruction sleeve is attached in such a way as to appear as a permanent part of the sunvisor or some other interior component covered by the standard. If the instruction sleeve is easily removable, is obviously not part of the sunvisor, and is clearly intended to be removed by the owner, we would not consider the sunvisor sleeve to be subject to the standard.; Yours truly, Richard B. Dyson, Assistant Chief Counsel
