I glued indoor/outdoor carpeting to the floor. Done!
In a book Locost, you (me actually at 5'8") cannot reach all the dash mounted switches when fully strapped in with a 5-point harness. And the ones I could reach were by the tips of my fingers. And getting strapped in a 5 point harnesses is a 2 minute exercise if there are 2 people. First one, then the other. If you both try it at the same time, you are leaning into, and elbowing each other.
I switched to a automotive self retracting 3 point belt. Still takes a "one then the other" process, but it is so much quicker only dealing with 1 tab to clip in vs. 5.
Getting into and out of a Sevenesque vehicle with full weather equipment is only for the young and flexible. Even with the wide book opening. That is why I went with the hinged hardtop. Easy-peasy.
Sorry if I offend with this one: Larger people find it uncomfortable because their body parts "flow" around the outer frame tubes creating a pressure point on their body. Every motion of the car pushes and pulls at the flesh. I inserted 1" building foam covered in vinyl in each of the triangle shaped frame sections. They are cut to snugly fit. No glue or screws are required. The entire inside wall is now flush taking the pressure points away. Much more comfortable for those long trips of 12+ hours, or even the short 1 or 2 hour trips!
