Hope this is what you've been looking for also! SEAT BELT HOLDER (FRONT)
I, like some of you, am frustrated at Ford's lack of providing a seat belt holder for the front seats. Each time I reach back for the seat belt, my chirapractor is gleaming with joy. I have been looking for the seat belt holder for some time to no avail.
Last week I did a search again and took a chance on ordering the holder. Upon receiving it, I immediately went for the installation. The seat belts are now resting on the driver seat shoulder and the passenger side also. I have a link for those who are interested in ordering, BMW Seat Belt SeatBelt Holder Clip Latch Set New OEM ( 180615110198 ) at Ebay.
This product is made by BMW for the Bimmers and Minis. They are sold by Prestige BMW in New Jersey. The cost is less than $40 and sold in a pair with free shipping. Since they are BMW parts, the quality is good. The hardest part of the installation is removing and putting back the head rests due to lack of headroom for removal. The order comes with two sets of rubber inserts for each seat. I would sugget that you use the bigger one for the ease of installation. Hope this helps those who are looking for the product like me. The product should be good for 2011-2013 seats. I don't know about other models. Since the product is attached to the head rest, the fitting depends on the width of your head rest posts which have to go through the seat belt holder.

Interesting...do you have a picture of them installed?
I have 07 seats in my car and they also do not have a seatbelt loop (more reaching waaay back) so I'm interested in buying either these or making my own.

I might have to pick up a set. Doesn't look like they'll get in the way of side air bags.

Necropost update. I purchased a set of these for the same reasons everyone else was speaking of. The quality is good and the fit is also suprisingly good. I'll second the wider pieces of rubber as well. However, I'm running into a problem where the breakaway portion separates when I'm simply trying to put the seat belt on. I know this is an old post but I'm wondering if anyone else had the same issue. I like the product but if it is going to separate every time it will get annoying extremely quickly.
