seat belt slapping in the wind...
Im sure this is common - with hard top off, my seat belts slap constantly in the wind. Even with doors on. Anyone come up with a plastic clip fix or something to keep them stable? I can move my arm into that space it stop it sometimes but dont want to do that constantly. Plus, I got a 6spd on my 2012 Sport, and I need both arms free to drive.

This is funny because I JUST wrote a post about this. I found something called Gear Tie at Target for about $8 that I really like. It is basically a mold-able rubber tie that you can use for anything. See the pics below!

I use those woolly looking seat belt cushions made to soften the belt for people who wear them, only I put it on the strap near the pillar. Works perfect for me.

I think seat belt cushions are the answer. I have bought a pair of these and returned them before because when you get out the seat belt doesn't r retract very well at all. You want some of these that you can put on and are loose around the seat belt, so that they will slide easy. A good sized rag and a couple clamps would probably do the trick.
@cabbagedog Where did you get those?

Not sure how it is in the '12 but in my '09 I just took the plastic trim that runs from the bottom of the pillar to about half way up off and ran the belt inside it. Not the portion that you actually buckle but the back part.
