Abstract

See full text

A cover assembly for a seat belt guide loop is disclosed having a first, outer cover portion connected by an elongate, thin connector member such as a tether with a second, inner cover portion. The outer cover portion is mounted to the vehicle via a bolt that pivotally mounts and anchors the guide loop. The head of the bolt is left exposed for a torque test or the like; and, then the tethered inner cover is assembled to the outer cover by a snap fit of one to the other. In one form, the tether may be integrally attached to one of the cover members and manually connected by an enlarged free end to the other cover member to tether the cover members together. The tether is hidden from view within the assembly cover portions after cover assembly. In another form, the tether may be a discrete part that is later connected to each of the respective cover portions.
