Default Flap..flap..flap! How do you stop the seat belt flap?

Okay finnally took the hard top off for the first time. I am loving it,...except for the seat belt flapping in the wind. Doesnt do it if the belt is off just on. Anyone know of a solution to the problem? Thanks

Thats right...it flaps when you are wearing it. You would think it was the other way around right? I was ondering if the shoulder pads for seat belts would help to cushion this? not sure though

Same way you stop tie down straps from flapping

Add one or two twists in the strap before you buckle?

twisting might work...but I really didnt want to hinder the seat belt. I was also contemplating like a velcro strap lightly across the belt. just not sure how to fasten this?

Just tuck it under the seat back handle. Or you can get some plain black seat belt pads, and wrap them around the belt at the bottom where it comes out of the spool.
