TITLE: SEAT BELT EXTENDER (1982 to 1991 Model Years)


A special procedure for customers who cannot fasten the original seat belt due to the length of the seat belt is now available. Customers can now order seat belt extenders at no cost through their local Toyota dealer.

The extender is available in black only and in lengths of 6", 9", 12", 15" and 18".

Customers will be informed of the seat belt extender availability with subsequent printing of the Toyota Owner's Manual included in each 1987 or later vehicle. (See page 8 for text of Owner's Manual).

The customer will be required to visit a Toyota Dealership to have the required measurements made and complete the application form. The completed application form will be forwarded to the TMS Customer Relations Department to order the seat belt extender. (Additional application forms are available through Region/Private Distributor Customer Relations Departments.)

^ The application must be filled out completely and signed by the customer in order for TMS/Customer Relations dept. to process and insure timely delivery of extender.
