To replace the seatbelt in the Volkswagen Polo, you need to lever off a panel to detach it from the pillar corresponding to the seatbelt being replaced: once this pillar is removed, you can loosen the screws that secure the retractor at the bottom and those that secure the pretensioner at the top. When both components have been removed, you can completely slide out the old seatbelt and replace it with a new one; at this point, secure it to ensure everything functions correctly.
