Default Seatbelt bracket removal

Ok....this thing has defeated me twice. I've read and followed instructions on other sites including RennTech. Each time I get stuck when trying to remove the 4 plastic pieces that hold the bracket in place. I also can't seem to find the one screw that they mention when removing the bracket as well. Can someone tell me how you remove the bracket to get to the seatbelt bolt? Twice I've gotten frustrated and given up. Any help is greatly appreciated!

You need to take a thin flat screw driver or even a jewels flathead screw driver and pry each one of the tabs up without letting the other side snap back in. Having the pillar cover on might be tricky for the top two. Could give that a shot.

This should help visualise where the clips are, there are 4 - 2 top 2 bottom

There is no need to pry the very top section of your image above just the 4 clips hold it in place.

Thanks Device2 and Dan_189. That visual helps A LOT! I think I was trying to pull up the entire bracket. It looks like it should just be pulled out when I'm able to separate the clips from the bracket. Thank you! I'll give this a shot in the next few days.
