Removing Seat Belts

I would like to remove my seat belts for cleaning. The bolts seem awfully tight and I am worried about stripping or breaking something (mainly my knuckles). For my next attempt I am thinking about using an impact wrench but do not want to do any damage. Or perhaps I should just clean them in place. Does anybody have any tips or experience doing this?
Thanks

Re: Removing Seat Belts

I got them out pretty easily with a ratchet wrench.
