Need help replacing the B-pillar trim in a 5.5 gen.

I was just wondering how to take the seat belt off it's B-pillar mount, I assumed there was a bolt holding it to the up/down slider, but after looking at it from all angles I couldn't find anything to unscrew.
Thank you for any info on this matter.

Well, first off, have you removed the B-pillar molding? It just sort of pops off...it's all held in with clips. Just give it a good tug. The bolt should be hidden behind that...

But if you're just replacing the molding...why do you need to take off the seat belt?

No, I havent removed the molding yet, but I will once I get in the car tomorow.

The B-pillar trim has a whole through/in which the slider sits for the seat belt, don't I have to remove it so I can swap the trim pieces and then screw back the seat belt?

This is for the Interior, not the outer trim piece that you can replace with chrome ones or whatnot.
