adjust the seating position, maybe try bringing the wheel out towards you instead of using the seat to put you closer to the wheel?Anyone have better idea? Place a small velcro pad around the affected area on the seat?
At least I know I’m not the only one, for a minute I thought I had a defective seat. Only because my passenger seat has no marks (the only person to ride shotgun has been my 5’1 wife.)I am 5' 6 with sit up position and have the same issue. Having shoulder pads semi helps but with problem. 1)Belt tends to be loose and not tighten as you are fasten while the pad slipped up to the rubbing area of the seat. 2) Belt doesnt retract as you unfasten, leaving it hanging loose as you exit.

I dont think Scotch Guard will do anything to protect the suede other than Liquid repellent.
Got any pics of the seat covers?I don't have the wear/marks there there but I have it on the bolsters where my jeans rubbed. I bought a pair of dream seat covers and it's the best money I've spent. Out of sight, out of mind, match the seat colours, the logo looks cool and protects of course...
Really, it comes down to the size of the user.And here I was feeling bad about 'settling' for an Si instead of a CTR. That military grade Kevlar, er, 'fabric' on the SI is holding up well so far.
Seeing as the wear is kind of inline with the gap, I was thinking of adding these instead of using a seat belt cover.I am 5' 6 with sit up position and have the same issue.

I just ended up getting seatbelt covers and it seemed to do the trickI'm at 6600 miles and just noticed the wear on my the left side of the driver seat from the seat belt. I'm 6'3 and sit high and upright when I drive. Think I'm going to wrap it in a sock or something at least for the time being. Not really sure what to do.
