Abstract
A guiding device for a front seat belt for a vehicle having a cross member formed at a rear seat side on an automotive floor and a floor tunnel, which has a retractor for the front seat belt, fixedly secured into an opening formed at the cross member, a boot fixedly secured to the side of the floor tunnel between the front side of the rear seat and the rear side of the front seat for guiding the floor seat belt drawn from the retractor, and a floor carpet arranged to cover the boot and formed with a belt passage hole, from which the seat belt is drawn to the front seat side through a belt outlet formed at the boot. Thus, the front seat belt is not exposed in an occupant's leg preserving portion of a rear seat to prevent the front seat belt from disturbing the occupant's legs at the rear seat and to simultaneously prevent the front seat belt from being contaminated with preferable external appearance and smooth extension and retraction of the front seat belt.
