Child Seat Tether Attachment: Service and Repair
Coupe
1. Fold down the rear seat and look inside the luggage compartment underneath the metal panel in the area behind the top of the rear seat back.
Locate the two existing 9 mm (0.35 inch) tether anchor holes identified by the letter T stamped in the metal panel.
2. Choose the desired tether hole location.
WARNING: Use only the tether attachment hole locations. The tether anchorage will not perform properly if the wrong mounting
location is used.
NOTE: You can attach an anchor to the metal panel located between the top of the rear seat back and the bottom of the rear window glass.
However, before you attach the child safety belt anchor tether, you must pierce a hole in the package tray panel for the anchor.
3. Pierce a hole in the package tray panel for the tether anchor. Use a sharp instrument such as an awl or ice pick and insert the instrument up through
the desired tether anchor hole in the metal panel up into the small-diameter hole provided in the bottom surface of the package tray panel as
shown.
WARNING: Avoid holding down the trim panel in the area that the hole is being pierced to avoid hand or arm injury.
