Claim:
A guide loop comprising: a first portion defining a first bore therethrough along a first axis; a second portion extending from the first portion at an angle, wherein the second portion is directly attachable to a body of a vehicle along a first plane, and further wherein the second portion defines a second bore therethrough along a second axis that is spaced apart from the first axis; and a third portion extending from the second portion and substantially parallel to the first portion, wherein the third portion is directly attachable to the body of the vehicle along a second plane, wherein the second plane abuts the first plane to define the angle therebetween, and further wherein the third portion defines a third bore therethrough along the first axis; wherein the guide loop is transitionable between: an assembly position in which the third portion is spaced apart from the first portion so as to define a channel between the first portion and the third portion that is configured for receiving a seat belt webbing of the vehicle; and an attached position in which the first portion abuts the third portion to thereby close off the channel and confine the seat belt webbing so that the guide loop is fixedly attached to and not rotatable with respect to the body of the vehicle.
