Default The Neck Choker AKA Seat Belt

Hey gang,

New to the forum

Curious about anyone else's solution to the dreaded seat belt of the S550. I'm hesitant to get a seat belt pad, because well I've always thought they look corny. But the damn throat-slicing seat belt is about the only thing on my car I don't love.

Talk to you around the forum,
Mario

Hey TRamsdell,

Not entirely, but I'd rather not have a harness on my daily driver.

Sorry guys sort of a related question while talking stuff around the seats, but anyone have an idea what the little tubes are under the seats, clear tigon tubing?

Could it be the tubing for the heated/cooled seats?

seat belt pads are a must have item. They have memory foam ones at Amazon. I have seat belt extenders also. They change the angle and help quite a bit.
They definitely are a pain in the neck.
