WTF are these?

[Big T]

Interior parts K2500 Suburban. Have never been able to figure out where they go or what they are used for.

 

[smokymtn65]

seat belts, not sure front, middle or back but can look later

 

[ak diesel driver]

Ah nothing like leftovers. LOL

 

[Will L.]

They go on the middle row outside. They are to redirect the seatbelt as a height adjustment for folks in the under 5’7” deptartment. They work well with car seats to guide the belt neatly through.
They should just velcro on.

Where do they velcro on? Height has never been an issue.

Those are a lot better answers than what I was going to say

 

[Jaryd]

Yes, seatbelts. We use them in the back of my wife’s van for the kids.

 

[Will L.]

One one each- outside of the seat iirc. Maybe onnthe pillar

 

[Jaryd]

They go on the top corner of the seat the same side the seatbelt is on.

 

[MrMarty51]

AAAANNNNDDDDddddd, now I know whut them bungee looking devices is that are dropped into the pouches behind the front seats of My crew crab, I mean cab. LOL

 

[JayTheCPA]

If my Burb is an example of all the vehicles . . .

The 2'nd row seats should have a velour patch at the top corner along the portion that faces the vehicle's exterior. The patch should color match the seat color which makes it easy to miss.

As Will mentioned, just press those doo-dads with the crochet patch on-to the velour, string the upper portion of the seat belt though the hooks, and they effecively lower the strap position going across the shoulder.

Oh, and pop-quiz: How many of y'all knew where the term velcro came from prior to my post?

Velcro is the brainchild of Georges de Mestral, a Swiss engineer who, in 1941 went for a walk in the woods and wondered if the burrs that clung to his trousers — and dog — could be turned into something useful. After nearly eight years of research (apparently it's not so easy to make a synthetic burr), de Mestral successfully reproduced the natural attachment with two strips of fabric, one with thousands of tiny hooks and another with thousands of tiny loops. He named his invention Velcro, a combination of the words "velvet" and "crochet," and formally patented it in 1955. Though the first Velcro was made out of cotton, de Mestral soon discovered that nylon worked best because it didn't wear with use.

I heard something about that on the radio lately, some trivia thing.

I had them floating around the Suburban. Finally just threw them into the glove box or console between the front seats.
