Feel like they replace the bolts for liability reasons.I didn't replace the bolts either; in addition, the Service Manual said you have to remove a bunch of interior parts just to replace the C-pillar which I didn't.

Those lower bolt (#7) has two different part numbers. It looks like they are the same size but one of them is longer. Does anyone know which one?

Is it only one bolt that is not replaceable or all of them?You also need the part number for the seatbelt bolt as that's not replaceable.
Both the left and right seatbelt boltsIs it only one bolt that is not replaceable or all of them?
yeah mine arches down, looks goodwhew it really took me like 3 hours (2 to figure out the first side). Doesn’t help it was in this 100+ weather in SoCal right now.. but it looks good! Is the round large end supposed to arch down? I could have sworn it was bent in shipping, but looking at the plastic lip It does look intentional
ahh nice, got a little worried. thanks!yeah mine arches down, looks good
@robinj27 which socal service facility did you order from - I'm in Carlsbad and they keep moving my appointment out. Ordered in July and they have pushed me out 3 times to what they have for me now which is Sept 21whew it really took me like 3 hours (2 to figure out the first side).

Looks great - I'm gonna do it and add a strip (led) light under the back end (behind the seats) of it.whew it really took me like 3 hours (2 to figure out the first side).

How hard was it to remove the lower seatbelt bolt? Also any tips to reach that lower bolt?whew it really took me like 3 hours (2 to figure out the first side).

I used the Irvine service center on barranca. The side c pillars arrived within a week but the parcel shelf is what took maybe 3 weeks and kept delaying the appointment@robinj27 which socal service facility did you order from - I'm in Carlsbad and they keep moving my appointment out.

Pretty hard, I had to remove the 2nd row cushion and the 2nd row door bottom trim to reach the bolt. I’d get a 15mm ratchet if you don’t have one already since it’s a tight angle to reach, you do not want to use a wrench!How hard was it to remove the lower seatbelt bolt?

It’s not that hard if you remove the bottom trim, but if you want to do it without removing the bottom trim it will be quite the task since the opening to access the bolt does not line up with the bolt and so it is almost impossible to get the socket lined up unless you have specific tools.How hard was it to remove the lower seatbelt bolt?

Honestly it isn't that bad, but it is also decent to pay around $179 for the service center to do it in about an hour...Sounds like a process.. I'm just going to have my service center do the install for me.
