    Default Rear seat belt problems?

    Car - AE86
    MOTOR - 4agte 16v
    USE - garage atm

    PROBLEM - Need to know how to get the rear seat belts to unlock so i can get them back in place.
    It's like they are jammed or something. Not sure.

    OCCURS/STARTED WHEN - I have unbolted one and it has retracted back almost all the way. Now it won't pull back out.

    Cheers

    You know seat belts are affected by gravity right? You need to hold the 'seat belt unit' upright like it would be mounted in a car THEN pull it. There's a ball bearing or something like that in there locks seat belts when the car's on its roof.

    Totally off topic here but sometimes you can tell a car has been in a decent hit and fixed not good by the seat belts. One car I rode in a few times, the seat belts units would jam when you're on a hill and won't let you put the seat belt on until you're back on level ground. The result of a decent hit to the b-pillar. Try not to buy cars like this.
