Seatbelt flapping with doors off and top down.

Thats the most innovative idea I've heard on this topic....I never thought to soften the flap against the plastic.

Buckling the belts is probably the cheapest and most expedient option. I usually buckle my rear belts and then take the top over the headrest. The front passenger seems to do just fine buckled also.

Go to wal-mart and buy a set of those cheap seat belt pads...you know, the ones that keep the seat belt from scratching your neck. Place them around the belt that retracts down into the floor, not the part of the belt that you actually pull out. Flapping gone, and only costs a few bucks.

I bought about 10ft of that hook and loop(VELCRO SYSTEM) and cut about eight pieces and took them around the roll bar where the seat belts connect, spread them out about 6 Inches and strap the seat belts in.. Keeps the flapping down and looks like it came from the factory that way. Haven't had problems since.. If that doesn't work I saw a lady with an old CJ tie hers down with pink bandanas... Real cute.. HA HA

What I did I got from a post I saw on here about a month ago. I cut some 3 in webbing to fit around the door post. I used some from an old computerbag I had lying arround.
Melted the ends together to make it thicker and stop the fraying. Just stick them around the pust and stick the ends inbetween the plastic and the metal. It holds the belt against the post and doesn't hinder the movement of the belt.

Basically you buy a set of those plastic cups with the felt feet on them and fill the cup side to the top with hot glue. I found using a can of "compressed air" (Tetraflouroethaline) used upside down expedites the curring process. I then used some double sticky 3M tape and stuck them to the plastic molding under the seat belt. Problem solved.
