A buckle assembly (10) for a motor vehicle belt restraint system. The buckle assembly (10) includes a mounting plate (30) and a buckle strap (32) carrying the buckle (24) which is rotatably affixed to the mounting plate (30). A torsion spring (50) acts on the buckle strap (32) to rotationally bias it toward a desired position. The buckle assembly (10) includes a retainer (56) for maintaining the buckle strap (32) in a mounting position, allowing convenient mounting of the device to the motor vehicle structure. Following mounting, the retainer (56) is released to enable the buckle strap (32) to move to its normal range of positions, allowing the buckle assembly (10) to operate in its normal manner.
