Default P/N for the front seat belt button?

The 'button' the prevents the seat belt buckle from slipping down to the floor when the belt is not in use has fallen off and is now lost. I have looked at a fairly detailed blowup of the entire seat belt assembly and do not see this part listed as 'available.' Anybody know if it is and if so, the p/n? Thanks.

I am lost.

When belt buckle is released, the retractor is supposed to spool it in ,,, it can be a bit lazy but your belt should not be lying around.

There is one button that is supposed to limit the spool to make the belt buckle in reach ... [almost like a lapel pin]. The closest thing I have seen are the magnetic tags at the stores ... sales person cuss if it punctures their fingers ...

I don't see a part number listed for it on Sewell.

Wonder if you could take it off another belt from a salvage yard. You wouldn't want to buy the whole assembly, as that's too much $$.

Salimshah: Yes, lapel pin analogy is what I am describing. For the moment I am making do with a large safety pin.
