Thanks for the replies. I will def be trying the seatbelt 'thing' tonight!
~ Benzfire, I'll take your advice and go ahead and replace the RCM. If it doesn't need it just yet I'm sure it will in the near future. I work for an exotic and classic car dealership here in Houston so I already get the parts for cost, and if I say 'please' my mechanics in the back do the labor for free

Doesn't get any cheaper than that!
While I'm here posting again... Any easy fix for the cup holder that is stuck open/up?
