MG MGF Technical - seat belt

Maybe a dum question.... but I need to remove the T-bar and the seat belts are "in the way". Does anyone offer free advise on how to undo the seat belts? Is it just simply getting the bolts out the seats themselves?
Freek

You got it, its quite a long bolt that goes into the seat and awkward to get at due to the restricted space but persevere and you wil succeed.

Freek,

You say you want to redmove the T-bar, but not why. If you are simply wanting to get it out of the way to work on something below it, you do not have to remove the seat belts. Leaving the belts in the T-bar, it is possible to move it towards the rear of the car and leave it resting on top of the soft-top.
Just a thought.

makes live easier-to re-mount.

If you really need to undo.

Thanks for the advice!

I'll replace the current T-bar as it is broken near the edges. Guess it happened when folding the soft top. The broken edges cause annoying (ticking) sounds when driving.

rubbing at the inner door cover ? Was it ?
In that case 'someone' forgt to mount the T-Bar in right manner to the outer rivets !!
The thin small brackets easy bend out of order when the T-Bar just gets pushed on.

btw why not selling the broken T-Bar to someone who likes to cover it with nice leather. Can easy be adhered together when nothing got lost.
