Well, I am in the middle of installing new carpet and all was going smoothly until the two seatbelt bolts located nearest the transmission tunnel stripped. I am now left with one stripped torx on the passenger side and one bolt with the head cut off on the drivers side. I have tried vise-grips with no luck. Please help with any suggestions, the frustration from this is killing me. I don't want to hack the car up. Also, does anyone know where I can purchase new seatbelt sleeves? Mine are now destroyed from attempting to get these bolts out. Thanks in advance for any help and sorry for the length.
