Seat removal for seatbelt replacement S40-V40

Just to close the loop on this one. The driver seat buckle was an easy replacement. The buckle requires a T-50 (I believe) socket. Although Haynes suggested the plastic covers over the bolts securing the seat rails to the floor would be very difficult to remove without breaking, I found this not to be the case. Carefully tease the plastic covers forward for the front bolts and backward for the rear bolts moving the electric seat in opposite directions for easy access. Do be aware at least on the drivers right front cover there is a small dimple that must be depressed do allow removal. Also, a small flat-headed screwdriver is needed to gently press the retainer sideways to allow removal of the electrical plug under the seat. My daughter is happy and so am I.
