The buckle receptacle in my 2016 Chevy Tahoe LTZ just DIGS into my hip. Does anyone know a mod or a replacement that replaces the OE receptacle and lengthens so the receptacle is not between my hip and the console?

Thanks everyone!

Oh man sometimes i forget to KISS. This is a great idea ill evaluate tonight if that or something like it would work. Thanks so much for the idea!
If you have some fabricated, I would have them made out of ASTM A656 (Gr. 80) bar stock. That way you will have at least 80 KSI yield strength.

I would check with your Chevy dealer. If they have something, I would use that. This will become important if you ever have a crash. You do not want to give the OEM a pass if you are injured because you altered the vehicle and the alteration was the cause of your injury.
