More Information
Summary:The invention relates to a body structure for a vehicle, comprising a vehicle pillar (3), in particular a B-pillar, made of a vehicle-interior sheet metal inner part (9) and a vehicle-exterior sheet metal outer part (11) which form a hollow support (12) with a hollow profiled section (13) that runs in the vehicle vertical direction (z) and has a closed cross-section, wherein functional elements (20, 21, 23) of a seatbelt system (19) can be assembled on the sheet metal inner part (9) of the body pillar (3). According to the invention, the sheet metal inner part (9) is part of a pre-assembly unit (VM) which is separate from the vehicle body (50) and on which the functional elements (20, 21, 23, 24) of the seatbelt system (19) and/or a pillar cover (17) are pre-assembled. The pre-assembly unit (VM) can be joined to at least one pillar-side attachment point (S) of the sheet metal outer part (11) in an assembly process step (ZSB).
