I can't even drive without the seat belt. It's just so normal and comforting that I can't even put it in gear without the seat belt clicking.

Call your local dealer, and ask them if they hand out extenders.

I feel naked without my rear view mirror. I don't wear seatbelts. My step father is a Paramedic for a living, you can't ride in his Jeep without wearing a seatbelt.

I know, the rear view mirror is pretty darn important

But yea, he is. Still don't like seatbelts though.

My POS dealer charged me 56 bucks for the extenders. But, then again they are known to be greasy douche nozzles.

Ive seen people killed in accidents wearing seatbelts and the people not wearing them survived.. Same for the other way around... I just tell people that if we are gonna hit something we better hit it hard.. I dont wanna limp away from this POS

For years I had terrible motion sickness in vehicles, both while riding and driving. Happened EVERYTIME I went somewhere. Then one day, I thought "I am going to have to jump out of this truck in a hurry when I get stopped so I can puke my brains out."
I took off my seatbelt while going down the highway in preparation for a fast exit. Almost instantly I felt better. Havent worn a seatbelt since. Havent felt sick in a vehicle since. I love seatbelts and I wont let my son ride without it... I just cant do it myself.
