Default housing for driver's seat belt

The housing/moulding for the driver's seat belt is broken at the post for the door and needs to be replaced. I do not know the name of the part to do a search and I do not know where I can purchase such a thing. Can anyone help?
Vehicle: Volvo S70, 1998.

Well, I have no idea what country you are in because you did not include it in your profile. How did you get the car?

The car was ordered through a dealer in the UK and shipped from Belgium. I'll keep searching for the correct part name.
Thanks

Is it a part that can be taken off? (I feel like this is some kind of word search game). If so, take a picture of it. I can get the part and ship it to you if you can pay for the part and the shipping.

I believe you are talking about the plastic molding that covers the seat belt housing on the pillar on the left side of the car (left hand drive)? I have one at my local salvage yard (1998 S70 LHD). What's the color code for the one you need (this one is 3960 - Beige). The issue could be shipping. I'm going to guess to ship it from the USA is about $35.

Thank you. You are exactly right it is the plastic moulding that covers the seat belt housing, However I need the one for the right side because I have a S70 RHD. The color is actually a light grey, something close to the Arena 3990. Notwithstanding the color difference, I'd prefer to have it than to continue without. The piece that's broken is the small well defined area through which the belt passes. I could send a picture if necessary. If it could be shippped to Fort Lauderdale I'll collect it and I'll pay whatever it costs.
