   Over time, the edges of the seat belt can become frayed or fuzzy, which adds
   drag as the belt passes through guides back to the retractor.   The solution
   is to use fine sandpaper on the guides so that they can accommodate the
   fuzz.  You can also check the retractor reel to make sure it is clean.

   Happened to me a couple of times.  I just mentioned it to the dealer during
   routine maintenance, and they put a new one on for free.

   Thanks, Since I have 1999 I doubt very much dealer will install a new
   one for free. I will try the sandpaper.

   And, the next time you are at the dealer, why not mention it…can’t hurt to
   try.  My 99 seatbelt was last replaced when the car had a few years on it.

   I can last the night in bed without creams, pills or any other lame
   technique.  What I do is:  Get in bed.  Pull the covers up.  I can last in
   bed all night.
   

   You really are a retard.
