Wallet Imprint In Leather Seat??

Anyone else having troubles with their wallets creating a big dimple in the drivers seat? Maybe my wallet is to big (not cuz I have a lot of cash haha) or does everyone else just take their wallet out to drive. It just irks me every time I get in and see that imprint in the seat.

Same here...my wallet has a metal harley symbol on one side...I have to make sure to face it the right way to prevent it from imprinting into the seat....

My phone on my belt I also found to be a problem getting in/out scratching the leather up......

Ya, I have started to take it out when I drive somewhere which is really annoying, and then having to remember to grab it when I leave. I just think that if I ever sell the car that a big dimple in the drivers seat would be the first thing a potential buyer would see.

Welcome to the site you guys.

Wow, China. Might be our first. Welcome.

I take my wallet out of my pocket on long drives. Not for the dimple in the seat, but just a trick I learned from driving 18 wheelers. makes it easier on your back.

But, the dimple should flatten out when you leave the car.

Yeah I found that I had the same issue with my car, especially on hot days. But once you get out and leave the car for a while it evens out. I just take the wallet out of my pocket because it is just a pain.

I find it uncomfortable to keep my wallet in my pocket while I'm driving. I usually keep it either in the cup holder or the center console. If its ruining your seat I suggest doing the same.

After sitting on my wallet for years, it actually threw my hip out, I have not even carried one for the last 5-6 years.
Money clip.

Side-ass it. My wallet is always in my back pocket but I never actually put any weight on it.

And actually after I bought this car I had to go buy a new wallet, my old one was too big... I got a very slim wallet, holds 3 cards, license, cash, and that's it. I often end up patting my ass to make sure it's still there though, haha.
