Front seat belt removal on a TT Cab

I have the DIY for seat belt removal from a previous post, it is for a coupe. I need the DIY for a cab. Maybe they are similar? TIA for your help.

Removing seat belt and fitting

1. Press out the covering cap 1 with a screwdriver. Unscrew fastening screw 2 . Remove the seat belt with fitting 4 and spacer sleeve 5. Removing side−panel lining.

2. Removing deflector. Unscrew fastening screws 6 from the deflector 7.

Removing belt tensioner. (Only on vehicles with belt tensioner).

3. Removing automatic belt device. Unscrew fastening screw 8 from the automatic belt device 9.

Installation is reverse of above.

Makes sure the belt moves freely before tightening down.

Ah yes...thank you Loren. You are THE man!

Any trick to removing the side panels to expose the mechanism?

Pretty much the same as the Carrera Cab.

1. Pull seat belt rose cover (4) up and off.

2. Undo fastening screw (6) behind it (be careful not to drop it into the chassis).

3. Detach side-panel lining by unscrewing the hex bolt (2) for the rear seat latch. Pull locking lugs of side-panel lining out of the clips in the rear side section and move forward enough to get at the back of the speaker.

4. Disconnect the loudspeaker electrical plug connection and disconnect. Remove panel.

There are some slight differences from the info. posted previously. I have re-written the DIY for front belt replacement in a newer cab.
