Hello Forum, new to the site and looking for some advice please.

We have a 2013 RR Sport Black Edition which we have had from new. The car is used a great deal now to transport our dogs with a dog guard fitted just behind the front seats and the rear seats folded down. One of the dogs took a liking to the OS and NS rear passenger seat belts and has chewed the clasps that fit into the buckle - so badly that we feel the only option is to replace them.

I've found replacements from a dismantler at what seem reasonable prices but I wanted to know what technical experience you guys feel is required to replace them. As they are such an important part I don't want to muck about with something that could cause serious consequences later on. I'm reasonably mechanically competent but not sure if I am going to come across anything more than just a few bolts to undo to replace the units or if they are more complex with any pre-tensioning systems or other things that might cause me issues.

If there is anyone on the forum who has replaced the seat belts before in one of these cars I would be grateful for any advice they can provide.

Thanks all - Best wishes, Mike

It's DIY. Check the bolts though, they maybe star / torx type rather than standard
