SeatBelt issues

Does anybody else have a problem with the seatbelt buckle is to high. Other cars I drive have the seatbelt buckled a lot lower.

Well I looked through the manual and check the buckle it self and I cannot find out how to lower the buckle point. Are you sure it is adjustable?

haha so i guess there is no solution for now. But my issue was with the buckle it self. It seems to be way to high where we actually buckle it in. Other cars have the buckle alot lower where it is only a few inches above the seat. Ours is more like 6inches or so when we have the seat lowered all the way down.

Same here. But it's better than the G35's! At least we can swing that little arm down.

I'm 5'6 and even when you swing the arm down it doesn't stay put. I constantly feel it slicing into my neck. =( I am not about to resort to those ricer shoulder pads either!

Well if your wearing a t-shirt then it slices into my neck. I mostly wear polos so it's not big of a deal. 2 things retarded about this and the G35- seatbelts and the cup holders are square. Why?
