The receiver can be coupled to the pillar. The router can include a guide body and a stowage member. The router can be movable between a stowed position and an extended position. The guide body can be configured to releasably couple the router to a chest restraint of the seatbelt. When the router is in the stowed position the stowage member can couple the guide body to the receiver. The tether can have a first end coupled to the router and a second end coupled to the receiver. When the router is in the extended position the tether biases the router in a direction toward the receiver.
