I just didnt want it to become a safety issue... dont want the seatbelt wearing out when you needed... Ford should hire better designers for their interiors...

Gee whiz it looks el cheapo - does anyone know if it's worth asking the service dept to change the plastic trim or will it be deemed 'acceptable'? Thanks.
