Wanted to take off the seat belt just to clean em but after watching the who process, I ended up deciding to chuck the whole car in the dishwasher 🥺🤷♂️
Rafeed, thats very funny!
If you change your mind, we can also completely change the webbing color to a custom color that will give you that new clean look. We have many colors available. Here are two example videos:

😂😂
Same. lol
Thanks, saved me hundreds just to do that. £230 for belt and £60 for fitting. I paid £27 for belt, fitted it myself after watching this. Fantastic!
Glad it helped
Cool, this pillar cover removal seems fairly universal for most vehicles, also useful for accessing door panel speaker wires.
Yes, true
Great job! makes it look so easy but tricky to do
😁 thank you!
Thanks for this video, it saved me when couldn't figure out how to get that electronic clip thing off.
Glad that helped, thank you for your feedback!
@@MyAirbags one question, my airbag light is now on, do you know why?
@@daryllp6270 when airbag light comes on, it could be for many reasons, similar to when engine light comes on. It is best to have it scanned, meaning connecting a diagnostic scanner and pulling codes to see what it is. It could be that one on the systems components failed or just a bad connection somewhere. There is no telling, just need to have it scanned. I hope this helps.
@@MyAirbags It just went on after replacing the bad seatbelt for another one. Very sad
@@daryllp6270 in that case all could be okay and it just needs a diagnostic scan tool to just clear the fault. But first check make sure the harness plug connection to the seat belt is good and tight.
Thank you! 👍
You're welcome! Let us know if we can assist you any further. Always happy to help!
Cool. Now that you've covered the easy basic monkey steps, how do we fix the interior of the belt pretension and locking system?
Please see our other videos
easy to wrench off bolts. how about more SPECIFIC detail on how to remove and reinstall molding without damaging. thx.
Hi John, Thank you for the essential feedback! We have about 30+ other cars/trucks videos where we show how to remove the module and seat belt. What car are you working on? If we have the car or similar model, we will reply with a the link to the vehicle. You can also see our CZcams channel for all the other removal instruction videos on different cars. Hopefully we have your vehicle on our CZcams channel: czcams.com/channels/8MLCGmnWcf21YsyWXONYFA.htmlvideos
@@MyAirbags do you guys have a video on a bmw m235i? (not the new ones)
Hi mate.
Do I have to disconnect the main battery only or also the battery in the boot? Also do I have to disconnect the airbag or will disconnecting the battery be enough?
Disconnect your battery. If your vehicle has multiple batteries then need to disconnect them. After you disconnect the battery(s) then wait at least 3 minutes before removing air bag computer control module. If the driver air bag is good then there is no reason to disconnect air bag. We can reset your air bag control module if your vehicle was in an accident. We also rebuild seat belt pretensioners. See more info at myairbags.com
Do you have a link to a video of taking off c pillars or seat belts in general at the front for a 2004 honda accord coupe?
We don't have videos on the 2004 Accord. Closest thing we have is a 2018+ Accord on our CZcams channel under videos.

that yellow pin that you disconnected it, is it for the airbag ??? and if it is did you disconnect the battery before ??? or can it be done without disconnecting the battery ???please and thank you
Yes first always disconnect battery when working on SRS Airbag system (airbags, seat belts, sensors). The connecter that was unplugged was for seat belt pretensioner. The airbag connector is very similar. For more information see forum.myairbags.com
can you feed the seatbelt through the trim panel or do we have to ship that as well?
Dont send the trim panels, you can leave them in your vehicle with the bolts. Here is a video on how to remove side trim panels: czcams.com/video/seqyQVq1tdk/video.html
Do you have to disconnect the battery before you undo the airbag clip on the seat belt? I have to replace the seat belt height adjuster on the passenger side of my 2014 Sequoia. I bought an OEM part and found you on you tube. I am not sure if I need to even mess with the air bag plug. I think I just need to pop off the panels and unbolt the seat belt and fed it into the new seat belt height adjustor. I think...any advice?
If you are not replacing the seat belt, then you should be able to just change the height adjuster. But will be easier if you disconnect the electric plug. Yes, disconnect the battery if you are going to disconnect the plug.
2ohms good to know that, thanks. The plug I disconnected has 8 pins. So I gues 6 of those are 2 each for each of the seat belts. THe other 2, what could they be..active (12V)and neutral perhaps? What do you reckon.
Tim, 8 pins plug is for something else. The pretensioners only have 2 pin plugs.
@@MyAirbags Yes, that's right. The loom for all three seats (it's a bench style) comes from one 8pin connector coming out of the floor. So the other pins are for seat belts warning (on or off) and the airbags. I'm guessing there must be an airbag trigger on one or two of those 8pins..so treading carefully.
What is the name of the plastic outer covering you popped off to get at the belt? Mine is cracked and needs to be replaced. Thanks
Side trim panel
@@MyAirbags Thank you! Great video! Im going to visit a upick soon after watching 👍
Could you do this process to fix a trapped seatbelt without having to remove the airbag?
Thank you for a great suggestion for one of the next videos!
Disconnect the battery and wait 10mins first to avoid firing the pretensioner.
Can you provide specific details on how to remove seat belt from driver seat on 2019 volvo s60 so i can send it in. Been fighting with it for couple days.
What part are you having issues with? Removing the seat belt from vehicle or removing the trim panel?
@@MyAirbags removing the seatbelt from the driver side seat
@@joelclark9163 is your set belt on the side pillar or in the seat itself?
@@MyAirbags it's a typical setup- part on the pillar & other end anchors to side of seat.
I got the part out of the pillar- now trying to get the anchor disconnected from the seat.
@@joelclark9163 you will need to remove the bottom anchor tensionser and send in for repair as well. You have a dual stage belts that consist of 2 parts, seat belt pretensioner and bottom anchor tensioner. The anchor tensioner is connected on the side of the seat belt. You will need to remove the plastic cover that hides the anchor tensioner. The anchor tensioner is connected to the seat with a bolt. Let me know if that helps.
Do u know how to put back that cover? Mine keeps hanging and won’t replace
It can be a little tricky sometimes to put it back. Everything needs to lign up and make sure the belt and other small trim pieces are not in the way. We can make a video on this.
Can you have the seatbelt Buckle deploy to, an the Retractor? Thanks
Yes most new vehicles have a pretensioner connected to a bottom anchor tensioner and both work together and both need to be replaced or repaired. We can rebuild both of them an save you hundreds of dollars at MyAirbags.com
I took the rear seat out of my 2019 Toyota Hiace Crew (without disconnecting the battery). I have a dash warning "airbag system malfunction". Is there a way to "dongle" or short the seat belt sensor harness (only to the rear seat). I believe I have to get toyota to clear the codes of the malfunction. I want the seat permanently out or at least the option to have it out for camping AND have my front airbags working.
Yes you would need to clear the code with a diagnostic scanner after you put the seat back. If you are not planning to put the seat back and still want the airbag light to turn off then you will need to use a 2 OHM resistor. Place the resistor in the harness plug that plugged into to seat belt. This would give a 2 OHM resistance to the SRS system and it would think that the seat belt is there. Do this at your own risk.
@@MyAirbags 2ohms good to know that, thanks. The plug I disconnected has 8 pins. So I gues 6 of those are 2 each for each of the seat belts. THe other 2, what could they be..active (12V)and neutral perhaps? What do you reckon.
But, it's not just knowing if the seat belt is connected. Because the seat belt warning does not sound if no one is sitting in the seat. So it must sense, first the seat is occupied, second the seat belt is not secured.
@@timpye6162 Look at the two wires that connect to the seat belt. Then you can trace those color wires to the plug.
@@MyAirbags Its a risky business for sure, I trace the wire colours from the seat belt to the plug and maybe get a circuit diagram from a toyota mechanic, before attempting the 2ohm short
@@timpye6162 yes for sure, good luck 👍
I am having weird noises from the seat belt height part 88890A from a Hyundai Tucson…do you know what can i do?…when the road is bad that part on each front doors make noises.
Probably just needs WD40?
Because there is only a bolt that holds the belt. For the height adjuster, it's just plastic and a few springs.
Do you have a video showing how to remove the rear seatbelts?
No not yet. We will work on that video next
Do you know what can be happening with a weir sound that comes from the seat belt height part?

who else just came for the electrical connections?
Here is just the electrical connection video czcams.com/video/dUD0OtqKS0g/video.html
@@MyAirbags yes mother i saw that. none of them are like the one i am fighting.
@@thejamesasher you probably got a tough one. We can help if you post a picture of it on our forum forum.myairbags.com
I have a 98 Cadillac Seville STS. Do you do any repairs at your office. I'm in Atlanta
What parts do you need repaired for your 98 Cadillac Seville?
@@MyAirbags the seatbelt is stuck. It comes out only half way. I need the seatbelt mechanism fixed or replaced. Do you guys handle that? The car hasn't been in an accident or anything.
Yes we should most parts for it. It is hard to get parts for vehicles under year 2000. But if you remove the trim panel and take a quick picture of it and post it here, we can tell you for sure.

What tools is needed to remove the seatbelts ?
On most cars, all you will need is medium - large size flat bar and a socket wrench set. We have more detailed and step by step videos on seat belt removal. Heres a link to the latest (We also have another great one we just did. It will be published on our channel in the next few days)

What’s the names of the covers removed before to fix the belt?
Side trim panel
On mu 2013 leather there are no bolts at the bottom of the top pillar cover. I can't get the top of the pillar cover to separate from the pillar. Something is different.
Sometimes, they are held by clips
@@MyAirbags well it had a screw holding it on. Found it. Tried to take the top star head screw out. It won't back out.
Is it really that easy to just snap off all of the plastic cover pieces?
Yes just apply gentle pressure and tabs will slowly pop-off. Dont force it, to not damage the tabs and trim
What is tool name to loose the nuts?
Most vehicles use torx bolts.
While the car in the video has a simple single bolt afixing the belt to the seat, my Mercedes does not and has a mechanism with cables and a cylinder.
Yes, some vehicles have different setups. We are creating more videos for different types of vehicles.
Buen día, puedo enviar mis piezas de México???
No lo siento, los cinturones de seguridad se consideran mercancías peligrosas y tendrán un problema en la frontera. Solo podemos enviar a una dirección de Estados Unidos
?repair? I didn't see a repair, only removal. And no vid of reinstall.
Arthur, Thank you for your question! After an accident, the seat belts deploy and lock up. Unlocking the belt is one problem, but not the main problem. You want to repair your belt so it works again if there is another accident. There is an explosive charge inside that needs to be completely replaced. This is something that you need a professional company to handle who has all the correct explosive licenses. You can buy a brand new belt, but if you want to save and repair/rebuild the belt, then you should use a good reputable company with the licenses to do so. The belt has to function again in another accident event. With seat belts, you want to save BUT also make sure the job is done right 100%. This is why body shops, collision shops and salvage rebuilders from all over use myairbags.com.
Repair is just 24 hours and prices are very good compared to new expensive dealership prices.
Also - You have a good idea for us! We will start working on a video on how to re-install the seat belt.
What car are you working on right now?
What is the name of the plastic outer covering you popped off to get at the belt? Mine is cracked and needs to be replaced.
1:30 how do you remove the plastic cover part?
Are you referring to the plastic piece covering the side of the seat? We didn't need to remove that plastic piece when removing the seat belt pretensioner.
you see the nut ur removing to take the seatbelt off?
that piece. but i figured it out. ha ha.. @@MyAirbags
What car is this exactly?
Lexus GS 350
Useful video, but why the irritating background music???
Sorry for that
For proper repair, OEM parts need to be used. See this video to know if the seat belt was repaired correctly: czcams.com/video/7skCTGv_gNM/video.html
I would much rather hear the natural sounds instead of the music 👎
Which car do you need seat belt removal for?
We recently uploaded some recent videos with better audio and instruction.
@@MyAirbagsit's ok i have removed the seat belt. The footage is good but the music is very annoying. I like instructional videos that are conducted in the same manner as would be in any trades school! No distractions. There's a lot of youtubers making the same kind of annoying distracting music videos. I can't watch for more than a few minutes before i switch off.
@@MyAirbagsit's become so problematic that I'm finding it very hard to find videos without music so i end up wasting a lot of time getting the information therefore feel I make a comment as such whenever i come across a video of interest in the hope that i can some how reverse this annoying CZcams trend 👍
@mik823 thank you for feedback! Yes we will stop using music in the instructional videos.
