Seatbelt Retractor doesn't

    My driver's side upper seatbelt (shoulder belt) on my 97 SL2 stopped
    retracting, or locking for that matter.

    1) How to I remove the trim on the B-post to access it? Chilton
    skipped this instruction completely.

    2) I'm betting that the part is a dealer-only. True?

    Thanks,

    Jim

    Have you checked that the fuse is good? James

    No fuse on this puppy, it's mechanical.

    I replaced the passenger side seat belt unit on my 97 SL1. It has been a
    few years and don't remember exactly, but think removal starts at the
    bottom.
    The unit is fairly complex and I had to buy a new one since one of the
    plastic parts in it was broken. The car was only a few months out of
    warranty when it happened and tried to get it repaired or at least get a
    new unit under warranty to no avail. Not all that hard to repair though.
    Good luck,
    MR
