Default Seat Belt question

On my wife's 07 Cruiser the seat belt didn't always retract. The other day the button on the belt which limits the placement of the metal piece on the belt got crushed in door when the belt didn't retract. In no time it fell off alltogether. Now you have to go fishing around the bottom of the seat to get the piece you need to latch into the buckle. If this isn't clear enough, go out and open the door of your cruiser and take a look.

So, where can you get a replacement and how do you install it? Or, is there another way of dealing with this?

There is already a hole where the button broke off. I went to a hardware store and found in the drawers that they have with all weird nuts, bolts and fasteners. I found a plastic one that goes through the hole ( not good to make the hole bigger so you don't screw up the belts strength )with a male on one side that fastened to a female piece on the other side kind of like the piece that was already on it before. Poped them together and it worked.
