What do you guys do to hold down those annoying rear seat belts flapping in the wind when the top is down? I've got some ideas (cutting them out!!) but there must be a simpler & logical way.
Flaping seat belts?

Phinz did pass the time by typing:
Velcro ties or bungee cords.

I'm planning to remove mine. No one ever sits back there anyway. n.
remove rear seat remove rear seatbelts sell seat and seatbelts as a set no more problems! =)
I made up some velcro straps and wrapped them around the belts and roll bar, that is, until I got rid of the rear seat for good.

Your Jeep prolly came from the factory with various adjustable straps and whatnot for the seatbelts, windshield, and the removeable fron rollbars. Check you owners manual for usage, and too bad if the straps have been lost somewhere.
I decided to go with Velcro straps tied to the rear rollbar, just in case someday I decide to put the back seat in, making my dog very very pissed!
There are really velcro adjustable straps, normally used to bundle computer cabling, available in several colors and quite rugged.
turn up the radio, and smile that your in a jeep with the top off. If your hearing is that sensitive that the seatbelts flapping bothers you ...why did you buy a convertible.

At least you can complain about the belts... I have regretted selling my CJ-7, 5 minutes after it was out of site. No open top, no fun. :-(

I buckle mine around the roll bar support bars - the diagonal ones - and snug 'em up. TrailMarker.
I kept the seatbelts so that I can belt in my dogs. I use Velcro. Go to the hardware store and buy some with adhesive backing. Cut strips and put them b back to back, and wrap it around. I got black Velcro to match the roll bar padding.
