Hi guys!

I know it has been discussed a lot in the past about the front ones but i couldn't find anything about the rear other then downunder's post from Australia.

I want to put a child seat in the back and would like to know where i could get shoulder belts for the back that bolts to the package tray.Also need a front ones as well and i'd like to get a pair with chrome lift latch style!
Do you guys know where i can get them?

Thanks,

Peter

Can't help you with an answer on shoulder belts, but...

If you are only looking to add car seats to the back and don't want to add a shoulder belt (if the OE look matters to you, for example), you can pretty easily add LATCH anchors between the top and bottom rear seat components and they wouldn't be too obvious.  Once installed, though, be careful getting in to the back seat.  Plopping down in the wrong spot WILL give you a massive charley-horse in the backside, I know!

Forward-facing seats recommend/require a top tether that could be installed in the package tray.

Depends on the type of car seat, but most seats sold in the last 10+ years have LATCH anchors.

This instructable gives some good info on how it could be done.  I would personally choose different hardware (steel eyelets with the eyes welded together), but the instructions are straightforward:

I got replacement belts from here (See link.) for very little cost. They have many colors and types. Mine have chrome ends and latches that have that 60's look and all are safety approved. (D.O.T.)  :2thumbs:

You should be able to order them online from one of the retailers using the part numbers in my post. Here is the supplier web site page for more info.
