I removed the passenger seat belt to replace it since it is ecru and filthy dirty and will not clean up. The question I have is the seat belt I removed and the seat belt that I am replacing it with are now unable to extend. Does the seat belt connectors (tensioner and other fitting) have to be connected in order for the seat belt to extend? or is there something mechanically if it winds up to far it is never coming back out?

thx....until i figure this out it is a one person vehicle!!!

I figured it out myself. I put it back in the car, connected everything up, started the car and went back over to the seat belt and pulled aggressively up. It did the trick. It now extends and retracts. The new installation will soon be complete.

Congrats and think of the money you save by doing it yourself!

Any hints to do mine? I looked real quick --- not sure how do the side inside side panel (if that is the right word)

Mine are dirty too... On the "To Do" list... might try an in-situ go with a fairly aggressive cleaning cream or something.

Strange that Sewell don't have the price online... worth giving them a call and getting a price comparison check.
