Hey guys, so I had finally had enough of the constant flapping of the seatbelts. I also didn't want to worry about anything that would cause them to not retract, once the seatbelt was unfastened. I ended up at Pep Boys, and found the seatbelt shoulder pad. I bought 4 total, 2 for each side...for around $20 I had to remove some of the foam on the inside, in order for the seat belt to move freely. They simply Velcro onto the seatbelt itself. Voila...no more flapping, and they retract normally! Hope this helps free someone else from the torture!!

One on each side works just as well. FYI

I started with just 2, but still had a little bit of flapping. I have an '07, so my seatbelt retractor isn't as tight as it used to be.
