jonahjones26 Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Hi, I have just found out I am going to be a dad and my first thought was .... How the hell am I going to get a child seat in the back of my 2000 g7 ? Now the wife wants me to get rid and I have promised her a new born child seat will fit? I have heard romours that Toyota do a seat? Is this true ? Also does it have iso fix points? ( I do not know what these are tbh) So anyone have advice on what seat to get for a new born and a picture of a seat fitted may actually save me from buying a ....gulp!.....family car:( Cheers guys and gals Oh and happy new year all !

Zorg Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) Congratulations and happy new year. Yes there are child seat attachment points. Check your owners manual and ask local Toyota. Btw remember the sun roof you wanted from me? If you want it that is. Edited January 3, 2012 by Zorg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyRacer Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Congratulations to you both. I've never looked to see if my TS has Isofix points but I do have a Toyota branded child seat which fitted into my wife's Corollas, T180 and Rav4s. It was made by Britax and very good. £200. I found this on NC which might help. http://www.newcelica.org/forums/showthread.php?t=330257 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c.a.r. Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Pretty sure the UK cars don't have the ISOfix child seat anchor points, whereas the American models do (as they are mandatory on all cars with rear seats). There are instructions on a label attached to the seatbelts in the rear of the car, something about extending the belt to it's full extent so it locks....

splinter Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 you can by unplugging it from under the dash!! dunno if that will make yours not work too though! But congrats on your balls working well fella! Why do they need to be special seats, surely you can find a seat out there that will fit??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonahjones26 Posted January 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 I tried to put my niece in the back and her car seat did not fit properly due to the bucket style so rather play it safe and get a seat specifically made for the car or approved would never forgive my self if anything were to happen and the seat did not fit properly.

nthnmunky Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Just disconnecting the airbag will lead to a fault light on the gauge cluster for SRS. You'll need to connect a suitable resistor inline to fool the ECU into thinking the airbag is there and working properly AFAIK there is no way to just switch them on/off on these.

jonahjones26 Posted January 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Ffs anyone would think these were not built for family use I will just keep a seat permently in the back then safest place to be.......while looking for a child seat I bought some light brow covers lol Missus will be well chuffed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J03 Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Give Pentagon Toyota Sheffield a ring buddy, they used to sell a child seat for the celica on ebay but can't seem to find it. All their seats are around £130 afaik. 0114 285 2765 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
