3. Slide the belt opening bezel up the belt. Secure into the trim panel by leading the two upper large tabs, with bezel at approximately a 45 degree angle to trim cover surface, under the upper edge of the trim insert panel opening. While pushing up and rotating the bezel toward trim panel, ensure that the leading edge of both retainers are within the opening of the trim panel. Push down on the bezel at the lower end until the snap retainers are secure.
4. Install seat back assembly by pushing to engage the three clips into the package tray strainer and the hole in both lower attachment tabs are aligned with anchorage holes in floorpan.
