R33 Driver-side Seatbelt Problem

Hey guys,

My drivers seatbelt wont retract or extend, could someone point me in the right direction to learning how to remove the panel behind the drivers seat. Do I have to remove the back seats to get to it?

Thanks,

Funny, i just plated with mine the other day
Mine just had some crap on it that was sticking when it passed through the seatbelt extender (or whatever you want to call it)
That panel is fairly easy to pull off. There is 1 screw somewhere in the middle and the rest is clips. Get a trim remover tool (super cheap sell a little kit of blue plastic ones) and pull the clips out to avoid damaging them. I took the bolt out of the top seatbelt carrier but cant remember if that was exactly necessary

So mine was only catching in the top, the retracting part was fine. Easy test for this is to grab the seatbelt below any of the parts it passes through and pull it to see how free it is. I cleaned my seatbelt with wax and grease remover then wiped it with some interior trim cleaner/shine

Thanks for the advice, I'll let you know how it goes on the weekend.

PS: Your 33 looks f*cking mint!
