Full seatbelt removal

[Newbieowner]

Morning all, want to send my seatbelts off to get them rewebbed and changed colour. Anyone got any pics on how to remove the full seatbelt unit to send to the comany, and any things I need to be wary of when doing so? I know how to remove the seat bottom part as did that when I replaced my seats, its the upper mechanism I dont know how to remove fully.

Thanks all,

It's dead easy. I don't have full end to end photos, but I have some!

You need to remove the whole rear trim, which is a pain in the bum the first time you do it while you learn where all the screws are, but you have to remove the central storage unit before you can access the screws for the turret covers, under which the seat belt is bolted to rear bulk-head (easiest to access with the roof up) and the guide attached to the outer roll hoop bracket (both 16mm bolts if I remember correctly).

Send it off to the colour-change people with the reel, guide, buckle and and bracketry all still attached. I used VentedUK and would certainly recommend them if you're still shopping around

And these were the finished results on mine
