I’m six foot and the Vert is a dream.

My son is about 6’5”, when he drives the seatbelt tends to slip off his shoulder.
It is a function of where the belt attaches to the side of the car, somewhat low for him.

On his hardtop, the mounting point is higher up on the B-pillar and no problem.

Any solutions?
Ideas?

Some manufacturers have belts integrated into the seat, but I do not plan on anything that radical.

Lop a few inches off - I'm 6'2" and they work fine

seriously, 6'5" might be asking a little much for any modern conv to cover. You might want to consider one of the light bar options and see if the belt can be bolted to that.
