Default holding seat belts with Recaros

I'm fairly certain I'm just going to bite the bullet and buy some recaros for the TA. What are people doing with aftermarket seats and the seat belt since the seats don't have the belt loop to hold the belt by the seat? Do you just reach behind you to grab the seat belt all the time?

Thanks

My belts aren't hard to reach at all.

Thanks for the picture Scott. I was thinking the seat belt would fall back further making it difficult to reach. Guess I'll find out once I get a new seat in the car.

Here's a picture showing how they sit in my car...



Very easy to reach once you know where they are.
