2010 Camaro SS Replace Driver's Seatbelt Latch - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

The driver's side seat-belt won't latch. The latch-plate of the seat belt won't insert normally into the latch. If I depress and hold the seat-belt latch release button the seat-belt latch will catch the latch-plate. The latch-plate is normal so I need to replace the latch but to do that it looks like I need to remove the driver's seat, I can't find instructions on how to do that. Also I can't find the latch part for sale.

Any suggestions?

Update - April 17, 2020

I think I found the seat-belt buckle at
https://www.gmpartsonline.net/oem-parts/gm-buckle-19208822?c=bD0xJm49U2VhcmNoIFJlc3VsdHM%3D
Part number 19208822 for the right-hand buckle and 19208821 for the left-hand buckle shown in the diagram below (item #5). One contentious item is the website GMPartsOnline uses the same diagram for both the front seats buckles but the parts do have different part numbers.

Any suggestions on DIY removal of the drivers seat?
