    If you are talking about the rear seats there are lap belts. Yours must have been removed at some time.

    the seatbelts in the rear are one peice, they come down from over the rear window then anchor to the floor w/ the bolts indicated on the pic (bolts 1 and 4)

    mine also has child seat anchors in the rear cargo area, if yours doesnt have them ill gladly send em to you, just send me a pm or email

    Nope. Just trying to pick up chicks.



    OK, really the little one is 2 yrs old and up until now I have always borrowed Mommy's car seat.

    I'm thinkin of maybe entering rallies with the youngest navigator ever, so I finally broke down and got the Recaro.

    Something is funky with my rear belts. They hang from the ceiling and when fully extended, they barely reach the belt clips in the center of the rear seat. There's no way they could reach the floor and then go across. Maybe someone switched them out for shorter belts and just wanted shoulder straps. Either way, there's no hardware for the floor bolts. Just naked straps hanging from the ceiling.

    I think I might have to be replacing both rear belts...more research.

    Thanks for the input, people.

    Etlsport,

    PM'd you but got kicked offline....hope it got there.

    Paraphrase: You da man. I found a solution for the child anchor. Thanks for your offer and pic. I think the anchor issue is solved/covered. Still have belt issues.

    Thanks,

    Bim
