Where to Find? Seat Belt Retainer

I'm looking for a seat belt retainer.

Not the racing clip type, but one that I saw on a website while browsing, it simply clips to the headrest stalks and retains your seatbelt at shoulder level at the seat when you take your belt off.

I'm tired of reaching behind me to put my belt on

Can anybody direct me to the right place?

You can try the dealer, if this is what you're looking for.
Part # 52 30 0 302 484
RealOEM only shows one part number, I wonder if it can be flipped over to use on the passenger side.

I'll have to look, but when I ordered my Seat Belt holders I found the part number for (what I thought was...) the driver's side only, however, when I received it, it was BOTH driver and passenger sides (Double check of course) Also, if you fold your seat often, I'd be careful, my driver side holder only lasted about a month before breaking It's mostly plastic and the strain from folding the drivers seat forward was enough to snap the piece where it "Bends". And removing the belt from the holder everytime you want to get something from the back seat is a PITA

Hope that helps, and I'll see if the part # from my box matches the RealOEM number supplied by Partsman

This is pretty cool. My short wife is complaining about needing to dislocate her shoulder to reach the seat belt. Anyone know if this is the same part available for all BMWs under the Part #52 30 0 302 425? I can't find the #52 30 0 302 484 anywhere on the net except in this post. If it is a different part, is there someplace I can order it from or just go to my dealer?
