Default Seat Belt Buckle Covers Interchangable?

My driver's side seat belt cover (the plastic trim bit) is missing and I want to put on a new one without removing the metal buckle, but I can't locate a driver's side one in my car's color. Does anyone know if a rear or passenger-side seat belt cover would be a fit for the driver's side buckle?

Also, does anyone have experience popping these plastic covers off without breaking them? I'm thinking about soaking it in hot water to loosen the glue.

Snackalac,

The only way to correct this problem that I have found is to replace the entire little Belt and Buckle down by your right hand! They are hard to come by! I searched for 2 weeks through several wrecking yards here in the USA and finally found 0ne that had the right color and right Belt...."Warning".....They all know that this Belt is hard to find and they all charge around $165,00 just for that (1) Belt!!! It took me 3 Months to find one....He was in San Franciso, CA. Sorry but I was so PO'ed about it I threw the contact information away! Try looking in England for a wrecker also! Good Luck with that!
