Default Need simple fix for annoying squeak

This is one of those minor annoying things.

My seat belt holder rubs against the right side of the base of the drivers' seat so that it makes an annoying squeak, particularly under stress when cornering.

It's a 2005 S4 and those big-bolstered recaros are partly to blame.

I think the holder just needs to be pushed away from the seat to stop the squeak, just wondered if somebody has come up with a simple and effective way to do that.

take the rubbery foam that you use for insulation of windows and its like a tape, tape it onto the seatbelt holder that should do the trick

I wasn't going to bother posting pics.
It's simply the seat belt holder/buckle (proper name?) rubbing against the leather seat that makes the squeak/rubbing noise.
I'll try the foam recommendation (above) this weekend and let you know whether it worked.
