Default Flapping in the Wind (Seat Belt!!!)
Have a new GS Coup. With the top off or windows down the passenger seat belt flaps in the wind causing allot of noise.I tried adjusting the passenger seat but it doesn't help. Anyone else have this problem. Any suggestions how to stop this other than Velcroing it to the inside wall or buckling it????

This may sound silly, but I got annoyed with mine and I just reached over and buckled it. Problem solved.

One of the best mods I've bought. I call it the sanity clip because that flapping noise was driving me crazy.

Went to their web site and the site must be down or my computer is messed up. Could not order the clip as I kept getting a weird message that site was not working. Can I get it somewhere else?

There is a huge power outage in San Diego which took out Sony online entertainments server farm which they rent from some data center somewhere. Their page may be hosted off a data center thats in San Diego. Give it a few hours and try again

I like this solution but we need pictures to demonstrate how well this works.

Dave (Madvette Motorsports) is no longer a vendor here. Another vendor (VetteNuts) here bought him out. Dave works for them also now.
