I used the biggest flat head screwdriver I could stick in there since I didnt have a bit to fit it.

Believe T50 is correct, saw it on a seatbelt guide replacement writeup.

If it's the back seats, they were a mother fugger to try to get off. I must be a weak bastard. I took the easy way out & sawed through the guide..LOL.. Slide the belt out & presto, you can take the back seat out.

I went out and bought the torx bits, but the damn belts are tight as hell, and at an angle. Whole car was rocking but bolts stayed tight. I just said hell with it

I think it's because I was using the screwdriver type tool & not a socket, I couldn't turn it at all.

I used a T50 & 18" breaker bar. The T50 was tight so I used a hammer to tap it in there.
