Sqeaking seatbelt
A strange question I know, but has anybody else got a sqeaking seatbelt?
Mine seems to squeak where it comes through the guide on the seat but if I lift it up slightly, or sit up a bit it stops. I'm not particularly tall or short (about 5'8") but other than sitting on a cushion I can't think how to stop it.
Has anybody else experienced this and/or cured it?

Yep I have had this. Strangely it was due to the cleaner / conditioner I used and was a real pain.
I have even put a small amount of adhesive backed foam to stop the noise as it is so, so irritating.
A good clean with a different leather cleaner / conditioner and it now seems ok.

Plenty of threads on this with a search.
Buy some black felt (eBay or haberdashery).
Unscrew the plastic belt guide from the top of the seat with two big cross head bolts.
Slip a square of felt under it and screw the belt guide through it to secure it.
You need a couple inches 'flap' on the front side for the belt to run on.
