Seat Belt Anybody ever break that little black plastic cover that goes around the male part of the seat belt that latches?
I think it is there to keep the belt straight.
Mine broke can it be repalced an how?

mines broke on the pass. side. There was a post a while back about this and they had a part num from gm. Like 10 bucks, most people were saying instead of unbolting the whole seatbelt strap to just make a slice in the replacement part then slide the belt through and screw it back down. I just haven't done mine...well because....i'm never in the pass side ;>

As far as the male connector goes...I was told by the parts dude at the dealer that you have to order the whole seatbelt in order to replace the plastic on the male connector...which was like $200+
I'm still looking into other options because those part guys usually have no clue what they're talking about. Thread Starter

But without that little plastic piece the belt want stay straight.
Thanks let me know if you come up with anything.

...which is supposed to be there to stop the connector from sliding down. Not a big deal really...just a pain in the ***.
