Default Driver/Passenger seat straps impede foot space for second row
It feels that there are weakened straps under the seats. Is is possible to get this tightened or a DIY
as to conform better to the seat?

Is this how it is suppose to be?





What do you guys recommend?

The leather flap should have an elastic band with hooks on it that clip onto the underside of the seat. frame

Thanks for the heads up. I did feel the elastic straps, but they are very loose. I will try modifying with an extra clip.

Bands were so stretchy, I basically tied around both clips. Thanks for telling me about them. At first, I didn't see or feel them. Looks great now!
