Seat tracks snag pants

[Stavinski]

I roll with my seat all the way back because I’m tall. When I get out certain pants grab the seat track every time. Anyone else have this problem? Found a model on thingiverse to cover the track for aesthetics. That model had a pic of a track that looked rounded/anti-snag. Mine are more square and will rip my pants one of these days. My car has the newer seat platform style as well (good comparison pic on weather tech.com floor mats selector). Did they stop grinding the tracks round/smooth on the Y? I’m going to give a go at modifying the track cover to also serve as a snag protector. Stay tuned!

Haven't experienced this problem. But maybe back when I was styling (ack!) bell bottoms...

You are right pops, bell bottoms will do that.

Maybe I should move south and just wear shorts...

It’s a no go, model Y tracks are bigger than model 3 in every dimension apparently. Looks like I’ll have to get the calipers out and model my own covers. Cheaper than new suit pants!

Wife just came in claiming the 3rd pair of pants that have been destroyed by the Y seat. I tell her to be careful but the seat is obviously poorly constructed. It's her car so I assume when it is time to replace we will have something else.
