To take the seatbelts out you need a torx bit

Torx 50 iirc

for the seat belt covers you need a TORX bit and as big of a breaker bar that you can fit in the car. When i took mine out i had three foot bar on the end of the ratchet and was basically putting everything i had into it to get it to break loose. They are equally hard to retighten.

yea man, i've read that getting the seat belts out is a PITA.... but that's a good think consider they keep u from going thru the windshield... but again doesn't answer my questions ............. i know i need a torx bit for the actual seat belts... i need one for the surrounding plastic as well? thanks tho man, i actually forgot that i read how rrly hard it was

Loosening ONE seat belt bolt is a ten minute job. I recommend doing it on a nice cool day.
