    Rear seat belt insert disappeared!

    Hey guys. Took some friends to dinner the other night and my rear passenger said the seat belt was broken. I checked and I believe the latch/ insert piece is stuck inside the retractor area. I can hear something rattling when the belt comes out. Any idea how to get that out?
    I dont see anything obvious.20180506_082536.jpg

    That happened to me, put the seat down and used a long set of pliers to grab the metal piece, it was really f****** annoying

    Also, you can pull the rubber/plastic cover up but it is glued so make sure you’re prepared to restick it

    Happened to me. Get yourself a extendable magnetic retriever tool, stick it in there and pull it forward enough to grab it with your fingers and pull out. Easy.

    OK thanks man, I will get one of those and get it out. Seems silly that the slot is large enough that this happens, but glad to know it's not a dealer type of fix. Thanks again for the help.
