Steve,
According to the FMVSS "lap or lap & shoulder belts shall have a single-point pushbutton release." Some of our drivers had seat belt extenders but they didn't have the FMVSS tag on them. We bought seat belt adjusters that snap over the lap belt portion of ours @ Wal-Mart. That seem to resolve our issue.

Denny, we just started using them. I purchased them from Recaro. I never investigated the legality of their use.

Does anyone use seat/lap belt extenders on their driver's seats? Legal or illegal?
Thanks,
Denny
