Default Seatbelt noise gone !!!

Hooray finally got around to trying a suggestion from a thread on here and it's worked a treat !
I had a really squeaky seatbelt and it was driving me mad every time i pulled out the belt and someone told me to take off the seatbelt casing and trim off the inner ribs, so I gave it a try and it's job done!
Silence is golden 😉

Il second how easy it is, there's a big tab at the rear of the trim, just pull that out and the trim comes off easy!
