Abstract
A seat belt anchorage is provided for a seat belt for use to protect a person sitting in a front seat of a two-door vehicle. The anchorage comprises a slider bar mounted in the interior of the vehicle adjacent the door sill and extending in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. One end of the seat belt is slidably attached to the bar. The bar is adapted to be moved towards the sill when the slider bar is subjected to a force from above so that the distance between the slider bar and the sill is reduced. This minimizes any risk of a person catching a shoe heel between the slider bar and the sill.
