Need a Spot
On the driver side front seatbelt on my YJ, the female receiver part button appears to have broken or failed. The release button and catch mechanism no longer will catch the buckle or release it. The spring may have broken, does anyone know a way to fix this, is it fixable? thanks

Funny mine just did the same thing. I think I am going to visit the junk Yard and pull a new or at least working one.

I shot a little Blaster into the buckle but watch out for the excess getting on clothing. MY button work fine after.
