Car seat anchor

Post by irowiki »

Going to be picking up a Petros Certified(tm?) Wagon this week and would like to get one of those metal anchors that attach in the cargo area that a car seat attaches to for our toddler.

It seems from extensive researching this was mostly a Canada thing.

Mad Marx was also looking for one of these, he has a thread here: https://tercel4wd.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9359

Figured it might be worth a shot in the parts section!

one of my project tercs had a child seat anchor in the cargo area but it was added by a PO. they just drilled through the body above the rear axle, stuck a bolt through with some big washers and the anchor on it. i looked on ebay and you can get anchors there, if not in auto parts stores, so i would probably go that route.

Ah ha, so instead of finding the one that matches the hole in the cargo area, just make a new hole with a third party bracket?
