MG MGF Technical - seatbelt removal?

In my quest to fit 6x9's in my T bar I am removing the T bar today only thing is i don't know how to get the seatbelts out. Do i need a star shaped allen key or is there any other way?

>Do i need a star shaped allen key

Yep, this is Torx 50.
Not very common, though.
See to get a short one for access to the seatbelt fixture at the outer rear of the seat.
