With my 5 year old boy in the back I turned into a sharp corner and wallop - poor little mite's head whacked against the nut holding the seat belt guide

Anyone come up with any clever ideas on how to cover these fixings or pad them out without them looking too naff.

If not it will be standard issue rear seat crash helmets for my boys next time!

You made him cry?

Get them crash helmets, now you know they'll be safe and you can drive as hard as you like with them in the car

Well...on second thoughts

Just leave it, I took a few knocks on the head when I was little, it never did me any harm...

How about covering a small piece of thin MDF (from DIY), with a layer of hard foam (from a cushion making place), and then covering that with vinyl matching your interior (from a stereo installation company)

Not a 5 minute job, but it should look lovely and not too out of place.

Either that or let your boy drive and you sit in the back...
