rubber molding at driver door

My 2010 FIT is 6 months old. The seat belt has a tendency to not always retract fully when I get out of the car. The belt metal clip sometimes gets caught as the door closes. It has torn a hole in the rubber molding.

Anyone know if this rubber door molding is difficult or expensive to change out?

Thanks
rick

72350-TF0-003 runs about $40 + shipping @ Majestic Honda - The Internet's #1 Honda Automotive Parts Store . Not difficult, a couple clips and mostly just pull off of pinchweld, slide replacement on.

The seat belt has a tendency to do that if you don't make sure it is not twisted as you get out. I have had this happen on several different models/years of Hondas, I just got in the habit of grabbing the belt up at the upper guide and sliding my hand down along the belt (as it retracts), untwisting as I go. Sounds like a major PITA but I don't even notice doing it anymore.
