Cheap Seat Squeak Tweak

When I move my Boxster seat all the way back (and then wish for more legroom),
the seatback rubs on the rollbar. The squeaking drives me nuts.
12" of Velco ($1.99/ft at Aco Hardware) fixed it.
Clean and dry the inside of the roll bar to aid adhesion.
Throw away the stiff Velcro and cut the fuzzy Velcro into 2" pieces to help it hold the curvature better. You may have to reposition the Velcro to find the best spot.
Also, I was worried the plastic mesh screens would fly away so I zip tied the bottom edge to the roll bar. Nearly invisible.

i suffered a minor rear accident (stopped before a zebra crossing) and i started to notice a seat squeak that only disappears when i loose some leg room. they should make the rollbar bigger but the new one (987) seems to bee smaller to... liked the idea.
