Keep your rear seats clean!

I'm guessing either everyone knows about this cause it seems really obvious, but if not check this out. I searched for it on here but didn't find anything about it.

I was cleaning up my seats and kept getting those seat belt rub marks on my IOM rear seats. So it just hit me that I could tuck the seat belts between the sail panel and the rear seat cushion and vuala! No more seat belt rub marks!

I have only had people sit in the back a couple times so tucking them is not a big deal.

EDIT: There are three marks, one where the buckle was and two from the belt (one up high and down low, you can barely tell in the pic.)

Maybe it's just the convertibles since they are always flapping around in the wind.

Ok I gotta ask.......who did you have sitting the back? "little people"....I can barely get anything in the back seat.

I'm only 5'10 and with my crappy lower back I prefer sitting up in my seat and a little farther up than most. Also I'm kind of OCD and like adjusting my passenger seat exactly inline with mine. When ever any group of my family/friends first sees my new vert they all want a ride. I have had four adults in it no problem, granted none have been taller than me and they were all with the top down.

When the front seats are adjusted correctly for them to fit, I have seen a 6' 1" male get into the back seat without to much trouble. Not recommended for long trips thou.

That's what I think too, I have a coupe and have no problems with the rear belts.

Thanks for the heads up from the OP though, it never hurts to check these things out.
