In the continuing battle with dirty Alcantara shoulders on Ivory White seats, have ordered some sheepskin seatbelt covers.
Chose sheepskin because, although some members have had success with artificial-fibre & black versions, I thought natural & white might be viable, too.
There's some nostalgia & whimsy in the purchase as well, because the company that makes them, presumably from left-over bits, went bust in 2014, after 168 years' trading. One of its famous customers was 'Del Boy'.

Alcantara shoulders ... seatbelts & sheepskin
Well, they've arrived and they're superb. If you have Ivory White Nappa & Alcantara sports seats - or any material, for that matter - they protect the point where the seatbelt comes into contact with the seat perfectly. And they're comfortable.
Better still, the company will make 15" ones to special order - the distance from where the belt emerges to where the buckle is kept on the stop on the belt.
So, when the belt's lying down the side of the seat, it looks just like a slab of high-grade sheepskin. Cushty.
Whatever, they're much better quality than anything in Halfrauds or wherever.
