How do you keep the rear seatbelts from flapping with the top off?

Buckle them. Just an idea. Havenā€™t had our tops off yet.

I recall trying to buckle last summer with tops & doors off, and the flap was almost worse than just leaving them unbuckled. I pulled over and unbuckled them.

Maybe buckling them, and wrapping the uppers around the headrest or something? Maybe a hook and latch strap around the belts?

1st world problems lol. Our Gladiator had clips just for that reason. Iā€™m with you on eliminating noises and distractions though.

I just buckle them and call it good. It does not eliminate noise but it's better than them not being buckled. IIRC it helps to hit the tensioner limit first to keep them tensioned.

Huge oversite on Fords part. I bought some clips years ago when I first got the Bronco, forget what vendor had them, but the adhesive doesn't stick to the Bronco very well and have to redo it all the time.

All you need is $3 worth of double sided Velcro wrapped around the seat belt and roll bar.
