Finding the anchor points in my car

Check your vehicle owner's manual to find where the anchor points are located. If you don't have the owner's manual, check your vehicle manufacturer's website or contact your vehicle manufacturer for help.

It is important not to confuse luggage fixing points with child restraint anchor points.

Find an approved person in your local area qualified to install anchor points in your vehicle (code LK6).
