Getting seat belt out of armrest panel

[Geo's66]

Guys, can't figure out how to get the actual seat belt OUT of the rectangular square hole it goes through in back seat armrest area!.... I have no clue and been screwing with it for a while. The retractor is still attached to body, have the roof lug off, the floor lug bolt off, can't figure out how to get it out of that rectangular hole to get that plastic panel out of the car! Help???

remove the leg from the floor. pull the screws holding the panel on. once you do that flip the panel over remove the screws that hold the small armrest on.remove the armrest then you should be able to pull the seat belt out of it.thats how i removed mine.

Man, I did all that including the removal of those 2 screws to take it off of panel. Just couldn't get the floor component through that rectangular plastic slot the belt goes through. I'll try again tomorrow... Am I missing something? Man, this is aggravating, thanks tho
