Default Solution to seatbelt chatter

This is simple but effective.

Many people have complained about the noise from the passenger side seatbelt hitting the door when driving alone. Some people have even suggesting buckeling the belt when no one is sitting there.

I have found that if you simply slide the metal piece to the top of the seat and let it sit on the "shoulder" of the seat, it will stay there (even in agressive driving) and not make a sound.

Hope this helps!

I think Honda should have rubber-coated the plastic portion of the buckle (or at least use a more "rubberized" plastic instead).

Why re-invent the wheel? Just use the search feature on this board and you will see that this has been discussed many times before. The solution has been posted, also.
