Default Driver's seat squeaking - plz help

i usually don't mind small rattles & squeaks but my driver's seat is squeaking everytime i go over a bump (that's every 2 seconds here in MI!).. it's coming from the left shoulder area. i checked to see if the seatback is rubbing against the car, but it's not.. plz help.. any ideas what might be causing this and a solution?

your seat belt, it rubs on the leather right next to the black plastic track on the seat.

Yep...That's it. It was driving me nuts this morning on the way to work. The humidity makes it worse. Tonight, I'm going to put a little 303 Aerospace Protectant on it and see if it fixes it.

One fix is to put some felt under the seatbelt guide so the seatbelt doesn't contact the leather at that point. I have the same problem and it's really annoying. There's a post somewhere about the felt fix.

Another good choice is a section of velcro (the fuzzy part) with an adhesive backing.

This is what I did...With all the marketing out there, you can even get one to match your interior...
