How to Replace the Seatbelt on a Volkswagen Tiguan

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan 5N, MK 1 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Checks and maintenance

To replace the seatbelt on a Volkswagen Tiguan, use a tool to pry off the plastic cover of the door pillar corresponding to the seatbelt being replaced. This will allow you to locate the reel around which the seatbelt is wound at the bottom, loosening all the fixing screws. Next, identify the pin that secures the seatbelt at its upper part, which can also be loosened, completely detaching the seatbelt; you can now replace it with a new one, securing it properly with the screws.
