Thankful that you had exactly the same car! And exactly the same fold! And thankfully you had a simple teaching gift at the moment to make it really clear!
Thank you for making this video. I fixed it in about 10 minutes on my 2007 Camry XLE. I do want to add that you should remove the bottom panel (that touches the carpet) first. Start on the left side of it where you'll find a rubber trim. Once the bottom trim comes out it's much easier to remove the top. The top snaps to the lower piece and there is a snap at the top of it.
2008 Camry. Leaving a comment in case anyone needs it. First of all, thank you for this video! It saved me a lot of trouble. I wasn't able to get the top to dislocate like yours. I think that's a difference in the manufacturing/design. However, after 15 minutes of finagling, I was able to get the sides loose enough I could shine a flashlight in and see the seatbelt, grab it with my needle-nose pliers, and pull it down. One pull was enough to unfold it. The casing doesn't fit back as tightly as before, but I DON'T CARE. Thank you again.
Excellent video! I've got the exact situation you do. Life saver video because there is nobody else posting this info. I was able to fix my ride without going to the shop. Thanks again!
Thanks for this video, extremely helpful! *Note for others in a similar situation, in my Toyota sienna I was able to pull back the panel far enough to fix it without undoing the top latch
Just did this. Remove the lower plastic piece (touching the carpet) by pulling the trim seal away. The trim seal holds the lower piece together and is an easy remove. You’ll see the bolt that is holding the top piece once the lower piece is removed.
Thank you so, so much for this video. Knowing where the hooks were was absolutely key. To note, for anyone else, my belt was so stuck, I couldn't even untwist it with needle-nosers until I applied some graphite lube: but that did the trick! The repair was very quick, nevertheless. You have done the world a service.
Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video, first one that popped up I might add, I have a 2005 Toyota Sienna XLE and it's the same seatbelt, so I feel very lucky ☘️
Yea, I'm there right now too, with the belt pulled all the way out. Thanks for taking the time to explain all that, for those of us with this car and problem. It's very much appreciated.
Hey thnx 4 this vid. Same thing happened (fold) 2008 Tacoma but I pulled till no more belt. I'm afraid I won't be able to get the panel part off. When it stops raining I will try. Thanx again
What is the panel piece known as that you are showing at 1:10 to 1:12 mark. I need to replace mine and don't know what to call it. Thanks for any assistance
You did not show how you first popped off the plastic cover ! Did you use a flat screwdriver ? I am going to try and pry the cover of part way. Wish me luck !
I want to do this on my sienna been stuck for years but there’s a airbag directly above that spot! I’m afraid if I pull the panel the airbag might deploy. Any other solution? Thx
