Yeah, those seat belts on mine really glued big time! I tried pulling it off and felt the stressed, so I stopped. You reckon using a small thin blade is a safe method?

However, I am not sure if that is the correct size. Any help would be great. Thanks :kittside: Just measure the license plate's compartment...

Re: KI3T 1/18 Scanner Shelby GT500KR

Hi all,

I'm attempting to paint the rear seats. I noticed that the seat belts are somehow glued on to the seats. I tried removing using a glue remover but without success. Can anyone give some tips? Thanks so much.

Re: 1:18 KITT

You have to remove the dash from the car and then with a small handtool sander, sand away the vents, but don't go too far otherwise you'll end up with holes. Removing Shelby requires gentle paint cutting compound & re-polish, care needs to be taken just to remove the letters and not cut through...
