you can take the seat belt guides off the seats but honestly unless you like to crawl in the back seat to get your seat belt all the time they are nice to have.

But i would love to see them when you get them . Might have to do this.

but as far as getting those guides off. they are a pain in the azz they have those round speed fastners on them (forget the actual name right now) but in order to ge tthem off you need to get under them with a screw driver and walk them up the post all the way around. and when they get high enough you can use the guide to help also.
had to do this when i put the screens in my seat and yeah they did not go back on there after that LOL

but i think if i were to buy those head rest would buy new screens for them also. i can see the look on the iwfes face seeing me bring those home to cut them up LOL

When I checked last night, the seat belt guides on my car at least are attached to the head rest. I did not study it up too much, but I was not able to get them off, they are really held on there somehow..

they are held in with the small star clips. if you look at the bottom of the headrest you will see them. they are made to hold against the round bar that go in to the seat.
they are not to tuff to get off but they are not fun to do it either.

in most cars you can get them out, but you may destroy your existing head rest to get them out.


i dont even use them so it wouldn't bother me much at all

you wont destroy them if you take your time.

you would be hard pressed to mess them up unless you use a chain saw to work on them LOL

Could you not use the seatbelt guide from the Impala that fastens to the door pillar. I don't know if there would be enough room for it or not in the Monte???

Don't they just slide right out? Are they making them nowadays that they do not come out if you pull them up all the way?

The headrest is really designed to be used as apassive restraint to minimize the damage cause by whiplash injury in rearend collision, not as a comfortability option.

The headrests come out no problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But ths seatbelt guides seem to be moulded right into the headrest somehow. Almost like they are one piece. I already had the headrests off and for the life of me I could not get the plastic guide off..

06 can you take a photo of the bottom of your head rest for me?
i belive we have a miss understanding on my part here. Mine are the 6th gen and not the 7th gen. they may have changed them but i was thinking they were the same.

as far as the Imp. guide i have noclue what it looks like. but hey next year this time i should be abel to help out more as i will be states sided so if worse comes to worse i can go look at on in a dealer ship . lol
