    Super high tech tip: noticed the passenger side seat belt buckle banged against the plastic when not used. Minor irritation. Grabbed the loop side of some Velco and stuck ‘er on there.

    result!

    Mine has a clip there I assume from the factory to keep it from banging. You are right though...super irritating to hear it tapping around.

    Either way, good idea!

    My 18 also doesn’t have a clip. I used the same stick on felt that I used in between the console and leather seat, also irritating.

    Lol I agree. At least you can adjust the seat so it’s not as bad, but after someone sits in the seat it’s game on all over again. Coming from a Tundra which had tons of interior space I wasn’t ready for that.

    Nice solution OP. I’ve been annoyed by this for years but hadn’t traced it down before.

    I thought I’d inquire with redline to see if they might make a leather cover for these. Might be right to fit something but it’d look better than adhesive on plastic.
