I have a question on the routing of my seat belts . At some point the front seats were recovered and the belts were not routed back through the retainers that attach to the head rests . They are closed loop retainers so do I have to disassemble the seat belts to route them properly? A pic would be helpful

If you have a bench seat just unscrew the two screws & slide the belt inside.
It is a bench seat and the guides are mounted to the head rests but there is no slit in them to slide the seat belt in. I’m not even sure if this is all original stuff . I’ll figure something out . Thanks for the reply

If you take them off, be sure you can relocate the screw holes accordingly and I highly recommend that when installing, you use a regular hand held screwdriver to install instead of a power tool. Less of a risk of stripping out that sheetmetal hole the screws go into.

If they're factory, they should be just guides that the seatbelt sits on top of. You say they're going THROUGH the guide? Got any pics of said weird shiite?

i can take pics but if they are original and the seat belt doesn't actually thread through the opening and just rides over the top then i guess im good .
