Child Seat Restraint System Belt Kit Child Seat Tether Anchor Kit

Important: All vehicles are equipped with drilled and tapped plates welded to the rear compartment front panel. These plates serve as mounting points for the Child Seat Restraint System Belt Kits (3). If an anchor bracket (3) is being installed for the first time, use the following procedure:

1. Remove the quarter inner trim finishing panel. Refer to Body Rear End in Body and Accessories.
2. Carefully lift the rear edge of the carpeting in order to reveal the anchor bracket mounting plate locations.
3. Choose the mounting location on either the driver side or the passenger side.



4. Position the anchor bracket (3) to the anchor bracket mounting plate.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

Important: Do not use a nut driver to tighten this hardware, or the fasteners will not be properly seated.

5. Install the bolts/screws (1).

Fully tighten the bolts/screws (1) . Do not strip the bolts/screws.

6. Replace the carpeting.

Note the bump created by the anchor bracket (3).

Important: Ensure that the carpet is pulled taut before making a cut in the carpet.

7. Carefully slit the carpeting to allow the anchor bracket to protrude.
8. Follow the instructions in the owner's manual and in the product information accompanying the child seat regarding the positioning and installation of the child seat when rear safety belts are used.
