Stupid question about manual seat belts

[LoneManWolf]

How do you remove the front shoulder belts
it seems like there is a cover over it and i can't for the life of me figure out how to remove that

[Pu241]

Cover?

Need a pic, unless you speak of the A pillar cover.

[LoneManWolf]

i figured it was something like that
i'll just smash it with a hammer it's just there for looks neway right?

[Pu241]

1/2 gallon as gas and a match will do a more effective job!

[LoneManWolf]

pfft i just want to smash the cover not the whole thing john
work with me here lol
so being serious what exactly do i need and how the bloody crap does this thing come off?

[wybnrml]

Just pry the cover open from the bottom of it, then there is a bolt underneath it.

Well, wasn't certain you weren't serious.

The pillar is held in place by metal clips, which if you are careful can be easily pried off.
The A pillar cover, assuming that is what you are referring to, runs from the lower windshield, up to the top of the door opening down the B pillar behind the front seats, so should properly be called the AB pillar cover.
Best bet is go to a JY and pop off one there before attempting to do yours.
If not start at the bottom of the B pillar behind the front seat and carefully pry up on the plastic, doing both sides of the piece at time same time will help the clip to pop out without breaking anything.
After the first on is out the rest pop out pretty easily.
Good luck!

I am guessing he has a pre '90 and it has manual seat belts, so there wouldn't be an automatic seat belt cover.

[LoneManWolf]

i want to move them down to the lower hole
