Default Seat belt driving me crazy

Does anybody know how to get rid of the twist in the driver's side seatbelt? Can I do it myself or do I need to take it into a dealer? And if I have to go the dealer route, how much will it cost me?

How did you get it to untwist? Isn't the seatbelt bolted on at the ends, or is it attached to a swivel? Mine gets stuck on the seatbelt loop all the time, and it's becoming a PITA.

The easiest way would be to get i forget the exact technical term but the star socket for the bolt that holds it down on the floor there and take it out of the loop that would be the fastest easiest way. Thats what I will end up doing good luck

I must have untwisted mine about 8 times in the last 9 months. Mines to the point where everything looks ok, but it doesnt retract. So when I take it off I just throw it in the back seat to get it out of the way...
