Upper Seat BeltRetractor Bolt Application
These bolts are intended for the upper mounting positions of the front seat-belt retractor assemblies. The package supplies two bolts for servicing the driver and passenger sides.
Non-Shouldered Bolt Design
The retractor bolts use a non-shouldered design. They should not be confused with shouldered seat-belt receiver or buckle bolts that are designed to permit movement at a different mounting location.
Used OEM GM Condition
These are original used GM fasteners. Surface appearance can vary, and the bolts may display normal discoloration, finish wear, oxidation or previous installation marks. Inspect the supplied bolts before installation.
Important Application Notes
- For the front seat-belt retractor upper positions
- Not the shouldered seat-belt receiver or buckle bolts
- Sold as one pair of two used OEM GM bolts
- Compare the bolt design and threads with the original fasteners
- Inspect the bolt heads and threads for damage before installation
- Do not install heavily corroded, stretched or damaged fasteners
- Follow the applicable factory seat-belt service information
- Identify the correct front upper seat belt retractor mounting positions.
- Compare the supplied bolts with the original fasteners.
- Inspect the bolt heads, threads and vehicle mounting points.
- Clean dirt and loose corrosion from the threaded mounting points.
- Position the seat-belt retractor correctly before inserting the bolt.
- Start each bolt by hand to avoid cross-threading.
- Tighten the bolts to the specification listed in the applicable factory service information.
- Confirm proper seat-belt extension, retraction and locking operation after installation.
Seat belts are safety-critical occupant-restraint components. Do not install questionable fasteners or operate the vehicle with an improperly secured seat-belt retractor.
