Took the seats out and replaced the seatbelt buckles. It's nice to have them stay latched when I hit a bump
I also swapped the front seats, left to right (passenger is driver now, vice versa) because one of the past owners was allegedly a rather grande chef, and the driver's seat sits a few inches lower on the left side.
As I care more about my comfort than that of my passengers, I switched them. The adjustment levers are not "convenient" to access as they were before, but they still work and driver comfort is much improved!
Also put a new fuel filter on today. I was pretty pleased; I didn't have to jack the car up and did the swap in ~15 minutes. Only got maybe 1/2 cup of fuel spillage, and it all went into a plastic tub and not on me or the ground. We had a few stutters and burps as the air that got in the line from the swap was pushed around and out, but things are much improved overall.
