Seatbelt rehabilitation.

[tacoduck]

Man, I wish I did this sooner. I did the same thing on my lx 470, so I decided to love on my lx570 driver side front belt.

I unbolted the seatbelt from the b pillar. Easy access, and I believe I used a 14 mm ratchet. The belt was nasty, so I hit it with some shout stain remover.

I then used a power washer to hit both sides of the belt. Used a yellow tip, which is lower power than a red nozzle.

All told, I invested 20 minutes and my driver side belt looks damn near new.

End result. Currently air drying in my garage. Looks 100% better.

That door pin pressure wash method is nice, id seen it on tik tok.

One area to keep debris free is the roller entry glide bottom. In the 470 the gunk would inhibit the return mechanism action. Its like lint build up or something, combining with human oils.

Good job and make sure to check that shoulder area!

My driver's belt is very slow to return back, would cleaning it like this help?
