I cleaned my belts with an alcohol based cleaner.  Window cleaner works well, just as it does for the seats and carpet.  I guess soap would work, but drying time might be a factor, and I would not want to have them retracted wet.  But, after cleaning, they retracted much more smoothly and quickly.  If the mechanism itself could be cleaned, I am sure that would be even better, but at least I no longer have tangled belts laying around. If someone has a simple way to clean the mechanism, I would appreciate knowing it.   mcneely
