2011 Ka Mk2 - Replace Front Seatbelts?

I've got a Ka that has had the pre-tensioners go off on both front seat belts. I took off the rear interior panel today and was able to unplug and unbolt the old reel unit.

However I can't actually remove it from the car as it is threaded through the shoulder point runner. I've absolutely no idea how you get the belt out? It seems to me the bolt for the shoulder point runner must be behind the rear window panes. But even if I could take the window out to unbolt it doesn't really help as I still have the runner on the belt.

It doesn't make any sense to me, is it that you un-ravel the belt from the roll fully and release it somehow?

Long shot - I'm sure it's not a common job but hopefully someone knows!

TIA
