Abstract
Abstract A structure for mounting a seat belt anchor for a vehicle with a sliding door includes a reinforcement member disposed within a vehicle side frame and adapted to receive a curved end of a guide rail from which the sliding door is slidably suspended. The reinforcement member is secured to the side frame with a fastener bolt. An anchor of the seat belt is also secured to the side frame with a fastener bolt also used to secure the reinforcement member. The reinforcement provides the side frame with sufficient structural strength to resist bending moment applied via the seat belt.
