Ball cap or two for the wind lol. Good pair of sunglasses and foot pegs. Couple of hair things for wife. Keep a good jacket or blanket for the cool nights so you stay out of trouble with passengers.

Cant recommend this guy enough. He has many designs and will do custom work too.

Only has a FB page, I wish he had a custom page but that would increase $$. Good honest guy with a great product. I have no correlation other than I bought and am happy with his foot pegs and mirrors.

Seatbelt covers (example), installed on the rear belts to mitigate or prevent flapping when driving with the top lowered.

I picked up this roll to keep the belts in place and have a bunch left over. It being completely velcro makes it a lot easier to use than the straps they give you that only are partially covered for holding down the top as well.

I would love some clarity on all the rear seat belt solutions mentioned here:

Are you all talking about the two side shoulder seat belts, or the center shoulder seat belt, or all three?

For whatever reason I have no issues with the two main/side belts flapping, but the center belt flaps like crazy. I wedge it in the arm rest, but putting Velcro, or a cover, seems like it would just change the slapping sound, not prevent it from slapping.

Sorry to thread hijack… but this thread reminded me I need a solution.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who keeps a stash of hair ties in his Jeep.

I haven't bought them yet, but these are on my list to protect the top edges of the tub and give a more clean/finished look.

I also bought Diver Down seat covers last year and was extremely pleased. For the price, they did exactly what I wanted - protect the leather - and they added a slight amount of padding. Still swampy, but in Texas summers, the only way to fully avoid swamp is by sitting on an ice cube.

Make sure you have nothing loose in your Jeep…even if it seems like it might weigh enough to stay down, it won’t. Eg. I have a box of tissues for my son who has bad allergies under the rear seat center console…thought it was going to be fine under there by itself as it is kind of wedged…rode too fully down and nope, completely new full box flew out.

I can say I have no seat belt hold downs and never have a flapping/noise issue…maybe it’s because I am blasting my music, lol

What is this for?
On the gladiators the rear seat belts on the side have little slots they go in. Does this pad cut the noise down of it slapping against the plastic pillar?

I have yet to figure out something for the rear middle seatbelt and the front passenger when the doors are off. They get super slappy

If you have important stuff in the Wrangler, you should probably do a once over, because when you hit the highway, top off, windows open, all that ? will go flying out, kids clothes, caps, ducks, disposable plates, receipts, plastic bags.....

On the bright side it's the easiest way to clean the inside.
