hey guys,

i broke the little plastic seat belt guide that goes on the headrest, i got new ones to go on, BUT i do not have a hex/star screw driver big enough to undo the bolt that ties the seat belt to the floor

and i have a pretty good selection, not even a big @$$ screw driver will fit in there

any tips or tricks to get that thing out??

thanks!

Doesn't the new one have a split in it (where it attaches to the headrest)
IIRC the bolt size is a torx 50 (aka T50)

Umm.. go to the hardware store and buy some Torx drivers...

you can get a cheap torx set from autozone with a t-50 in it. I think you can also buy it by itself.

I would invest in a decent set of Torx drivers because its not too hard to round off a torx head on a cheap set by using the wrong one that seems to fit

t50?! mine is more around t25 for the seatbelt holder. good luck gettin those out, they have a lot of locktite or something on them. use a drill

*t50 should be the size for the actual seat belt clicker, the female end

I bought a T-50 at Wal-mart in a 30 dollar set. I have never seen another place that has one in Austin. Not pep boys, autozone etc, otherwise I had to drive to O'reily's 60 miles north to buy a triple set to get a new T-50 when I lost the first.

Alone the set of 3 cost 10 bucks, sheesh.

go to sears and buy a decent set of 3/8" drive torx sockets, these cars have plenty of torx bolts and you'll be happy to have them in the future.

If you don't want to go out and just buy the torx just buy new head rests with them already on them...
