Default Backwords seat belt? (Pictures)

Hey, my passenger side seat belt is backwords and I wanna know how to turn it around. It's been like that since I bought the truck but got it turned around at one point but it flipped again. Any suggestions for flipping it around?

pull it out as far as it will go and flip it over before letting it retract? Always works for me...

Twist the belt and make a fold and pull the buckle through it.

People that wanna live.

I know that was tongue in cheek there...... but, I gotta admit, I am a big advocate of seat belts. I have seen too many accidents where the folks wearing their seatbelts walked away with pretty minor injuries, while the folks that weren't wearing theirs were killed. (in the same car....)

I know what you mean, I'm 25, my step father is on the rescue squad, actually that's his source of income..., he still gives me crap about not wearing one....

Also, when we're all in Virginia, he REFUSES to let me drive my own vehicle if I've had so much as 1 beer with dinner...

I am just now responding....lol
Ya know how many pages ya have to go back to get something only a week ago? Alot.
Anyway, I tried what y'all suggested with no luck. The actual buckle is flipped, which would explain how I fixed it for a while...Any way to take it off with out breaking anything?

It takes less than 10 seconds, fold the belt at a 45* angle and simply work the buckle over the fold, easy.
