A plastic sleeve positions a seat belt and conceals a seat belt end having an anchor plate connected to the vehicle body by an anchor bolt assemblage. The plastic sleeve comprises a tubular sleeve portion enclosing the belt end and extending adjacent to the seat. A base extends from the tubular sleeve for interposition between the anchor plate and the vehicle body. The base has integral upstanding side and end walls. A cover extends integrally from the sleeve portion and has downward depending side and end walls adapted to lie adjacent the side and end walls of the base in parallel juxtaposed relationship and overlie and conceal the anchor plate and bolt assemblage. A plastic living hinge connects the tubular sleeve with one of the cover and base, preferably the base, to permit flexure of the cover and base between relative open positions permitting access to the anchor bolt assemblage and closed positions concealing the anchor plate and bolt assemblage. Interfitting snap retention projections are molded integrally with the parallel juxtaposed side walls of the base and the cover to retain the cover and the base in the closed positions. The cover and tubular sleeve are preferably stiffly interconnected relative one another while the base portion is connected to the sleeve portion by a flexible living hinge. Accordingly, subsequent to installing the anchor bolt assemblage, bodily pivoting movement of the tubular sleeve to its use position within the vehicle body and simultaneous closing movement of the cover over the base will establish the cover at the closed position.
