Hey guys,
Got myself a one year old Civic Type S GT recently. Minted condition with just 4500 miles on the clock. But i've only just noticed on both passenger and drivers side - the damn seatbelts after taking them off and allowing the spring/retention system to retract them back is causing the belt clasp to rattle of the interior plastic pillar cover which is marking them really badly, it looks so scabby on a car that is otherwise perfect. Is anyone using anything by way of material or something to cover these marks and soften the "blow" as the seatbelt rattles off the pillar. God knows what it'll look like in 3 years when I come to sell her
Any suggestions?

Solution

I was maybe thinking of some self adhesive felt or something that you could add to the pillar without it looking too gash, also maybe add some around the "knuckle of the seat belt buckle" (Nice rhyme ) so that when it does hit that plastic pillar that it is with a softer edge?

This has been brought up before with people coming up with similar solutions. I think some self adhesive fabric was the answer!

No solution without sticking ugly stuff on pillars
