you'll need to replace the whole seatbelt clip, it just clips under your seat, maybe a bolt or two.
it'd be easier to take the subframe right out, or the seat out, but if you can't just follow the wire from the tensioner, under you're seat, to you're clip 
hope that helps, cause it's hard to explain.

You'll need a new pretensioner, Get one from a scrap yard.
The seat needs removing from the car so you can unbolt the pretensioner from the seat frame.

but put the locking pin in the new pretensioner as just falling off a bck seat onto the floor can make it go off

if you put it in 'safety', then when you have a real crash, it won't lock and you'll fly into the window?
