Very quick interior mod to save your sanity!
« on: September 18, 2011, 04:37:09 pm »
Super quick, subtle Mini mod to save my / your sanity.....

Always plug in passenger seat belt if no one is in the car cause it knocks and bangs while im driving.

I put a strip of the soft half of velcro on the buckle.....

....then realised why not just use the other half and can stick it to the pillar when not in use :)





All you need is some self adhesive velcro.  Job done!

It puts a loop of seatbelt between the buckle and the pillar to prevent it banging.  It doesn't attach to anything.
