I looked at that option too, and I think you'd need some sort of precise and powerful machine press to drive out the pin that forms the axle of the hinge for the clip, and then something that could re-insert a new pin for the shorter clip.
It's something that Seidio could do easily but I could not. If you think of a way how, please share it with us.

The Holster with the best reviews so far that ive found is the OEM holster/kickstand.

I also want to be sure that the spring clips are exchangeable between the two holsters.

they appear to be, altho i'd try a clip from something thinner like the naked g nex holster. i'm an accessory freak and accessories make the phone. i absolutely LOVED how i could have anything i wanted for my X (cased holster, naked holster, functional cardock...) in december i swapped my X for a gnex and i'm still slightly regretting it. i have no functional dock, my cases/holsters are a mish-mash of what i can dig up to fit (right now i'm using a commuter case in an active holster) and i'm thinking about going back to a moto phone because verizon just doesn't offer the nexus experience that it should so since i currently have a somewhat limited phone anyway, why not go back to a moto. ... bla bla bla.. i'm rambling.. anyway... i completely understand your position in making sure you can have the accessory you want before making the dive on the maxx, i'm in the exact same situation. i have a few seidio holsters with varying clips if you're interested in experimenting pm me and i'll see what i can offer to help.
*edit* yes, first post.. i registered to offer help since this thread came up in a search while i was looking to see if i could get a holster for a naked maxx IF i decide to swap my gnex.
ohhh i see well you could always use the Seidio HLMTRZASA, I've never used it myself but you can always look at the reviews, its about as naked as it gets LOL Amazon.com: Seidio HLMTRZASA Active Holster for Motorola Droid RAZR - Retail Packaging - Black: Cell Phones & Accessories
I'm using a holster that I got with the platinum series case for the bionic... fits the RAZR naked pretty well

... based on that i might just keep dealing with my gnex.
That is funny. I did the same exact thing. I bought the red one.so i ended up using a commuter case with an active holster and i'll deal with not being able to dock it.
Thanks Scottysize! I have not bought one yet. I've been hesitating a bit because returns and exchanges are such a pain in the #$%^&*!! LoL.
I also sent Siedo an email to produce the spring-loaded holster. I'm looking forward to your update!
Same reply I got. Maybe they'll actually make one soon. I used the Commuter Case for about a week, but hated taking it off and on again. Now I'm back to putting it in my Oakley case.Here is Seido's reply. I request that anyone interested in a holster please also write Seidio. The more requests they get, the better.

I figured id post again. As far as naked holster... im still using the bionic holster from the platinum series case/clip. Sold at best buy. But the clip works extremely well on a bare razr. I've used the same setup since ive had the razr and still not a single issue to speak of.
