that is what they are designed for...

 

I got it all ordered I found a little discount for 10% off so I saved a bit, thanks man!

 

Nice! No problem, You should get another 10% discount card w/ code with your parts. I have always gotten one on my orders.

 

Are they relatively fast shipping?

 

Yeah, not too bad. Both my orders arrived in about 3 or 4 business days

 

Washed the other two front seat belts. Ew.

Pulled dents from a accident on the passenger side of the cab. Done by previous owner. Cleaned 16 years of Alabama red dirt road out of the parts I removed for the dent removal.

Pics are before, and during dent removal.

Then water before and after cleaning two seat belts.

Last is the final product of the dent removal.

 

Nice save on minimizing those dents.

 

Sweet! Gonna do the deck plate mod and start practicing! .....

 

That seatbelt water is horrific. Maybe I should clean mine...

 

I've washed the front 3 so far. Driver, passenger, and middle. I stuffed the middle seat into my center console to hopefully keep it more organized and not so dirty. I can't believe how gross they were

 

It really is impressive. This is not the first time I have been disgusted at seat belt water. Same goes for seat water. I should look into cleaning my seats and seat belts. I am sure they are saturated with body oils and other nasty no-nos.

 

It was simple. The driver was really really bad. I did that first with the same method. Pulled all I could out and hand washed in a bucket of soapy water. Then rinsed in a bucket of clean water.

That alone REALLY helped with my seat belt retracting on its own.

I plan to pull the seats and carpet out one day and pressure wash them. That's going to be terrible.

 

So you didn't have to remove the seat belts? Maybe I'll give it a try. Definitely seems worth it.

 

I pulled everything I could and stuffed it in a bucket inside the cab. I used a 5gal bucket about half full. The stuff that is left over is RARELY ever out so it isn't as dirty. I unbolted the bottom most bolt into the frame and everything else stayed put.

 

I need to do this, bad.

 

Got lost at the mall this weekend:

Dang man, those pot holes at the mall are getting gnarly! That last picture blows my mind.

 

Right?! Colorado has a way of doing that.

 

Finally, a mall I actually want to go to. I'll bet the food court was awesome.
