Default Anyone Else Having Seatbelt Problems? PLEASE HELP!

Hey all...I was wondering if any of you were experiencing the same seatbelt issue I was, and if so SOMEONE PLEASE OFFER SOME ADVICE!

I'm 5'10" tall and I find that the shoulder portion of the seatbelt in my 02 silver/blk stook really digs into my neck (and is not height adjustable). This annoys me so much to the point where I take the seatbelt off and don't use it- very frustrating considering I believe in ALWAYS wearing a seatbelt...

I've tried every type of seatbelt pad and adjustment aid, but to no avail- and now it appears I have a real dilema.

PLEASE HELP!

I'd consider installing a 4 or 5 point harness in lieu of my stock seatbelt- but apparantly, after reading some old posts I learned that none are available unless you wrap the shoulder portions around your roll bars...rather crude looking IMHO...

ANYONE GOT ANY IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS?

Thanks All...

Lean your seat back/forward or something. I am the same height and have no problems at all. You need to just play around with it.

Have you tried taking it out of the holder on the side of the seat? It should help it go lower...

tried that already- it keeps creaping up on my neck anyway-

I think i need to install a 4point harness of some type- one that I could bolt to the car somewhere- even have prefessional installation- so I wouldn't have to loop it around the roll bars...

anyone have any recommendations on products or installs?

Check with Schatten, I believe he has tried some 4pt harnesses.
