    I have been told that my 1993 model has 2 , above the tailgate .
    While there are plugs there I have not physically inspected to see whether there are the correct size nuts there.

    It will have either 3 or none.
    If there's 3 trim plugs along the back of the headlining, you should be lucky.
    Pull one out & it should have a threaded hole there.



    What ever you do, do not remove the headlining to inspect the bracket.

    I have a 92, there are 3 anchor points, they are in the roof above the back window, covered by plastic plugs.
    Pull the plugs out and there is threaded holes for the restraints to bolt into.

    if you are going to do this... pull the trim around it and inspect the bracket.. i did when i was changing speakers and was shocked at how flimsy these anchor points were and thought to myself, buggered if i'd risk a kids life on that... so i pulled all 3 out.

    just my 2 cents

    You can also get a bar which fits between the rear wheel arches. I would imagine that you could fit 3 to this. They do appear in the markets from time to time. I have one which I don't use/need atm.

    Ritters in Melbourne do a bracket with 3 anchor point which goes into the roof above the rear window if your car doesn't already have the anchor points.

    Yep, that's why I said to Inc not to look at them.

    I copied the brackets but used 5mm steel instead of sheet metal + added side bracings & reinforcement in the roof panel.

    I had to have kiddie restraints fitted to my 1990 when I imported it to Australia - Australian Design Rules thing that no-one ever checked!

    Vehicles prior to 91 HA series had, as markate said, two points a foot behind the rear seats to take the top mounts for a central kiddie seat. These bolt through the floor into the rather lightweight crossmember below. In the UK you'd use the lapbelt to secure the bottom of the seat - for OZ additional clips on the existing lower seatbelt mounts.

    From 91 HA onwards they're as everyone said - 3 points above the tailgate...but only for Australia. LR must have come to the conclusion that Aussies breed faster and more frequently.....
