Default Seat Belt Extension

My racing buckets get in the way of my seat belt. Does anyone know if there is some easy buckle-in seat belt extender?

If your stock seat belts are going over the racing seat then they cannot hold you in place. A seat belt extender will not improve the situation. They have to be across your lap. If you were in an accident your body would move forward a fair amount and you would be more likely to submarine under the belts. The shoulder belt would then become a hang mans noose.
