John:

The belt clip itself is very tight, and the screws are as tight as they'll 
go.

It's just that the little plastic piece that fits between both sides of the 
belt clip is loose, and doesn't fit onto the belt clip snugly any more.

Is the belt clip tight? did the screws come loose? mine did once and that
was how I noticed it.
