25.7 Removing the plastic cover from the<br />

front seat belt upper mounting<br />

25.8 Pull away the weatherstrip before<br />

removing the rear trim panel<br />

4 Unhook the spring and gently allow the<br />

tension to be released by allowing the spring<br />

to unwind (see illustration). The spring is<br />

normally tensioned by one complete turn.<br />

5 Remove the spring from the retaining bolt<br />

head.<br />

6 Unscrew the bolt securing the belt to the<br />

inner sill panel.<br />

7 Prise off the plastic cover from the upper<br />

mounting and unscrew the retaining bolt (see<br />

illustration).<br />

8 Pull away the weatherstrip locally, then<br />

remove the trim panel from the side of the rear<br />

seat for access to the inertia reel (see<br />

illustration). To save time, just the front of the<br />

trim needs to be detached in order to reach<br />

the inertia reel.<br />

9 Unscrew the retaining bolt holding the<br />

inertia reel in place and remove the seat belt<br />

from the car (see illustration).<br />

mounting bolt<br />

10 The front seat belt central stalk is<br />

removed by unscrewing the mounting bolt.<br />

Rear seat belt<br />

11 The rear seat belts are removed in much<br />

the same way as the front belts,<br />

12 The outer mountings are held by one bolt<br />

(see illustration).<br />

13 The inner mounting is undone after lifting<br />

the seat squabs (see illustration).<br />

14 The inertia reel mechanism is held in place<br />

in the double skin of the luggage<br />

compartment, and the upper mounting bolt-is<br />

accessed by removing the plastic cover (see<br />

illustrations).<br />

Refitting<br />

15 Refitting is a reversal of removal but<br />

tighten the mounting bolts to the specified<br />

torque.<br />

Interior trim panels<br />

1 The interior trim panels are secured using<br />

either screws or various types of trim<br />

fasteners, usually studs or clips,<br />

2 Check that there are no other panels<br />

overlapping the one to be removed; usually<br />

there is a sequence that has to be followed<br />

that will become obvious on close inspection.<br />

3 Remove all obvious fasteners, such as<br />

screws. If the panel will not come free, it is<br />

held by hidden clips or fasteners. These are<br />

usually situated around the edge of the panel<br />

and can be prised up to release them; note,<br />
