Some '90 Ford Tempo Issues

Hi All,


1990 Tempo
2 door
2.3 Liter

The automatic shoulder belt on the driver's side of this car started making this hideous grinding noise. It seemed to be stuck so I tried to un-stick it. I think I broke the plastic portion of the track that pulls the belt forward and backward. Is there anything I can do to fix this myself or do I need to order a new part? (at $200+, I'd rather not)



The driver's side door seems to have dropped a couple of inches and now will not close from the inside. How do I fix that?



Thanks for all replies,



Jake

Hehe,

That's what I do now. However, in Virginia it needs to be inspected and I

*thought* it would fail.

Wouldn't you know it, I took it in for inspection without saying anything and it passed!

I still wouldn't mind fixing it though.
