    Changing drivers seatbelt buckle

    My seat belt buckle doesnt catch, the button seems to stay fully pressed in. If i put my seat belt into it it will stay a bit but if i move any it will release again. Need to know how i can get the damn thing out and get another one for it.

    there may also be a coin stuck in it. take a long thin pocket knife and flashlight to it and see if you can see something floating around in the catch. Had this happen a few times in relatives' cars over the years. getting said coin out was a definite trial of patience, but it fixed the problem.

    as for getting it out, it should be bolted to the floor just up from the rear feet on the seat if it's the front seat (I'm guessing driver's seat). probably one of those giant torx bolts... t-45 or t-50. There should be an electrical connector to disconnect for the seatbelt latched sensor as well IIRC.
