Removing the Seatbelt

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra G - Years 1998-2006
Part: Seat

To remove the front seatbelts, it is advisable to also remove the front seats to gain more manoeuvring space during the removal of the plastic covers on the door pillars. Once you have disconnected the seatbelt from the seat and removed the seat itself, unscrew the fastening screws of the plastic cover on the door pillar, remove it by releasing the clips and pulling out the seatbelt. Next, remove the upper pin that secures the seatbelt to the pillar, and then the lower pin, which can be accessed from the outside of the pillar by removing the plastic cap.
