    You could also just stuff a towel in the crack. I do enjoy the video on their website, with all the people "carelessly" dropping there stuff. Why does the woman suck her finger when she recoils from going down the crack? (Didn't mean for that to sound nasty)

    So what's in it to make it fluffy? And what is the material like on the outside?

    I guess you could always stick a used Domino's Pizza box in your windshield, but I'd rather buy a sun shade ;)

    Don't know what's inside, (it may be filled with Billy Mays's beard hairs, or possibly recycled sham-wow's) but think outside is made out of that wet suit material. Built very well. Can't believe I didn't think of this!

    This would prevent proper collection of my retirement fund. I like to check under the seats every so often for more contributions. I even get an occasional stale fry!

    HA! I love this line:

    "Once you have Drop Stop, you'll NEVER HAVE TO SEARCH FOR ANYTHING AGAIN!"

    Actually, a pretty good idea for my passenger seat. I succumbed to just leaving my Greater Boston Street Atlas wedged between driver's seat and console.

    Will it stop me from needing to search my washing for odd socks?

    Unreal Invention for Prius

    What were we thinking people? Just bought and put in my Prius...looks unreal...can't even see it.

    I crashed into a federal mail box once because I was digging for my bluetooth headset in the crack of my car seat! No mas!

    As I said in my earlier post...I will post pics later this afternoon.

    Ha! That's funny...I also used to use my Thomas Bros. Map Guide to shove down there as well! Wasn't too pretty, or good for coins though!

    I hate to say this, but that really looks like a good idea! Have you actually sent away for this? Let us know if it actually comes, and if it really fits the Prius.

    Re: Unreal Invention for Prius

    Oh yes! I ordered for my Prius...and it fits perfectly, and is completely invisible! I will take some pics and post today so you can see. It is so easy to put in. just slides over seat belt catch, and you wedge it into the car seat crack...took 2 seconds to put in...and I can move my seat back and forth and it flows with the seat! Really cool. stay tuned for pics! :)

    :) I don't know if it's the seats in the Prius or what, but I drop all sorts of stuff down the crack. I could of used this last week! :)

    Is this something designed just for the Prius or does all car seats have this inherent flaw?

    Re: Unreal Invention for Prius

    Hey guys...I knowingly posted on both threads...I assume they are read by different viewers. Very excited about the product. Am going to post pics of it in my car now. When I want to share, or back in the day when I was leading the pack to find out how to crack the post 2006 NAV codes...I posted everywhere on here I could with nary a problem. I understand where y'all are coming from though.

    Could you do the same sort of thing with pipe insulation like we used to block the front grills?
