Default seat belt whoaaas!

Does anyone have a problem with their drivers side seatbelt binding up in it's track?
I almost have to be a contorsionist to ensure the belt feeds straight through and even then it doesn't seem to work that long. If there is a quick fix or technique out there I would love to hear it.

My seatbelt in my 00 sucks too. It doesn't retract all the way and it's twisted backward... I need to get in there and fix it, but the bolt under that little cover won't turn at all... so I dunno. I just deal with it.

Did you try using a socket wrench? Cuz sometimes bolts won't loosen up with just your fingers or a pair of tweezers. [sm=smiley4.gif]

I've got this issue on 95 as well.. it's twisted on the lap-belt though.. shoulder belt is fine.
I think the people who install these things are retards.
