If these would have been made of smooth metal, the friction would be lower, and I could see that they might work well. The flimsy plastic that I received is hardly worth $20. Maybe my seat belts have a rougher texture than the seat belts in other cars, but they look pretty “normal” to me.
Just my 2 cents...

I'm surprised. Mine work fine. Did you 'wind' them up tightly when you installed them. I have had them on all four belts in my Town Sedan for ~5 years now with no problems.
They also have metal ones if you prefer.
