Removing the seat belt on a BYD Tang, I've done it several times myself and think I can share some practical tips. First, locate the seat belt anchor point on the B-pillar, where there's a plastic cover. Gently pry it open with a small screwdriver, being careful not to use too much force to avoid scratching the interior. Inside, you'll find a fixing bolt, usually with a Phillips or hex head—loosen it counterclockwise with a wrench. Once done, carefully pull out the seat belt webbing, making sure not to tug on the locking mechanism. The entire process must be done with the vehicle turned off, and it's best to disconnect the negative battery terminal for a few minutes to prevent accidental airbag deployment. After removal, cleaning or replacing the belt becomes easy—for example, using mild soapy water to scrub off dust, letting it dry, and then reinstalling. When reassembling, remember to tighten the bolt securely and test its firmness to ensure the seat belt functions properly while driving. I recommend preparing the tools in advance and consulting the official manual or videos for extra safety—DIY is fun, but safety always comes first.
