Seatbelt headache

[portlandareae28]

The plastic trim piece on my passenger seat back is no longer attached to the seat, is there a cure for this?  It drives my wife crazy

Seat belt trim? Where the belt comes out?

[portlandareae28]

Correct, where the shoulder belt comes out

I believe its part of the seat belt.  If its broke or coming out of the seat then maybe you'll have to replace the belt assembly or find a way to glue/rig up a fix.

Any idea how you get to the seat belt assembly?

[KATOOM]

I dont know of any place.  I'd start with an internet search or check with a dealer.

Pretty sure you have to pull tbe seat cover to get to the belt assembly.

Yeah the seat belt is buried in the corner of the seat frame. The cover has to come off and padding removed. Sad I had a set of seat frames with the belts. Couple years back found a dumpster.

There is always Pick Your Part.   Great place to practice part removal also if your not sure how something comes apart.

Is there one close to me that you are aware of that might have some 2nd gen action?

You're can call them but they might not have an up to date inventory sheet.   I just go in with list and a box of tools I think I'll need. You can walk the yard, hit or miss, some times you find gold other times it's just exercises.  A lot of parts from a Ram 1500, some from the derange and vans will fit on the ram 2500 and 3500.

That part can be replaced without disassembling the seat.  My driver seat was missing that trim piece when I got it.  I snagged one from the salvage yard and managed to squeeze it on with only unbolting the bottom section of the belt.  The hard part was pushing the shoulder latch through the trim piece.
