Whatever your prior experience may have been, the odds are overwhelmingly against you, if something were to happen in the future, that you may be better off NOT wearing a safety belt.

But I'm sure feel you've heard it all before, and you are a grown up, so I just hope you never find out either way.

They are clear plastic protectors that go over the OEM mats. They're great for keeping mud and dirt (or in my case, Har-tru) from getting ground into the mats. You can get them from a number of the catalogues, including FVD, a Rennlist sponsor, and Mid-America (used to be Performance Products). They're about $30-40 the last time I checked.
