Rear seat belts locked

[frestylmotox01]

Long story short I installed a rear seat delete and removed the seat belts. I'm not loving the set up and thinking of reinstalling the seats. When I went to grab the seat belts, they were locked and offer almost no give. I can't reinstall with them like that, wondering if anyone else has had this happen and gotten passed it.

Thanks

Most likely it's the angular safety lock that locked them up. It's a mechanism that under extreme angles of the car's body, it locks up the seat belt to keep the body from slipping through. What may help you to get them to release is to hold the mechanism at a neutral angle the way they are mounted on the car and try to see if they unlock.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot!

This was the solution, I was able to find the right angle and get them back out. Thanks!
