    Astra Mk4 interior change, need help!

    I have currently got a cloth interior in my Astra. I have recently acquired a half leather interior out of another Mk4 Astra, the only thing wrong with it, is that the seatbelt tensioners have gone off, meaning the yellow tags are on show. Is it possible to change the entire frame from the cloth interior, and put it onto the half-leather one?

    does it not just unbolt ? if the tags are exposed you dont have to worry about it going off, but on the active seat it is recommended to disconnect the battery for at least 5 mins before attempting to do anything with pretensioners
    I smile because I don't know what's going on.

    just unbolt the pre tensioners and bolt them on the new frames while your swapping it, easy.

    as above really, when you take the plastic cowling off the side of the seat subframe the pretentioner will be in front of you. there should be a little plastic chip on a string attached to it and slot it into the directed place on the pretentioner. this will stop it from actvating when you take the old seats out. then while you have the seats out, swap the pretentioners from the old to the new. keep the 'chip' in place until the new seats are bolted in and secure and then slot the 'chip' out and replace the cowling.
