clip holding 3rd row seat belt snapped off

I have 3rd row seats in my vehicle and the clip that holds the seat belt to the side panel when not in case snapped off. Now the right hand seat belt interferes with the cargo cover whenever I try to open/close it.

I spoke to service advisor at dealer and said they have to remove the entire side panel trim to replace it and said it is not covered under warranty because it was not a defect. I bought the car new last November.

Anyone else had similar problem? The piece feels so flimsy and easy to break off.

I want to try and replace it myself. Does anyone know the part number for the side panel and how I can remove it and replace with new? I have the beige interior but the trunk section including the panel is black.

I'm attaching a couple of pics of the part that broke. thanks for any assistance.
