Shoulder Belt Rubbing on Seat

My Z4 has the Ivory White Nappa Interior option. While I love how the interior looks, I'm constantly cleaning the alcantara inserts where the shoulder belt rubs against the seat. I want to prevent the constant rubbing from eventually damaging the seats. Does anyone sell a should belt guide, or is there some other fix that resolves the seat belt rubbing issue on the e89?

I cable tied the seat belt covers to the metal bar where the belt disappears into its slot, this stops the belt from leaving wear marks on the seats :thumbsup:

Try those seat belt load spreaders and as said above tie back. I used some black cord trapped behind speaker grille.

I use these successfully on my Ivory White leather & Alcantara* seats.

They need to be 15" and the company will make them to measure.

*The best way I've found to clean Alcantara is with Waitrose wet wipes. Whatever you use, do it very gently. Why BMW put it at contact points I can't imagine.
