Lower Seatbelt Bracket Torx, really really stuck

[SuperWade2]

I was getting ready to start reinstalling my interior, trying to remove my rear seatbelt bracket bolt...The T50 Torx sheared off an Impact Torx Bit...luckily I was able to get the sheared off chunk out with a magnet, but any tips for removing this bolt?

Never mind.. a 2' Breaker Bar and a better Craftsman Torx bit and a little oomph!

Breaker bar or impact gun?

Oh, and if I remember right, you can see the bolts from under the truck and hit them with PB Blaster.

I used Fiiiiiiiiiiiire :brows:

 

I know the feeling. Destroyed a few tools getting mine out. Finally crawled underneath and got the nuts glowing, then was able to work them out.

It must have been a thread off or something the last time I installed it....once I got it out, it when back in with no prob once I stuck the carpet back in....Probably a cheap chineese torx bit...the craftsman one held up OK (although I felt better knowing I could take it into Sears for a replacement had it broke).

it when back in with no prob

I ran down to the hardware store and got some real bolts the same thread and length. IMO, two of the best dollars I ever spent.
