Default Question re Tether Bar

Hi All
I have a Chrysler Voyager 1999 GS SE
Could someone please tell me where the child restraint anchor tether bar is located and what it looks like? I am wanting to install bolts for a child safety seat but can't track down where they are supposed to be located.
Thanks in advance

Well if you have small kids, do day care or fostering do not buy a Voyager 99 model. It is a nightmare to get a tether bar installed and will cost 1,000 dollars. Not only that its expensive to fix its been unbelievable If I had known this I would have opted for the Tarago.

I'm still left in a dreadful dilemma I don't have 1,000 dollars and without that I might have to sell the vehicle.

DISCUSSION:
User-ready child restraint tether strap anchors will be provided in passenger cars in the
2000 Model Year, and in light trucks in the 2001 Model Year and later. Tether straps
improve the performance of child restraints in collisions. Because of the publicity that has
accompanied the "Fit for a Kid" Program, owners of earlier products are expected to
approach dealers for the free provision and installation of the anchor hardware.
Chrysler is offering child seat tether anchors for the selected vehicles listed above. Each
tether anchor is packaged in a kit containing all necessary parts and a detailed instruction
sheet.
NOTE: This bulletin is provided to identify the parts and labor operation numbers
necessary to install a Child Seat Tether Anchor. Each dealer is encouraged to
install these kits based on customer request and Chrysler will reimburse any
Chrysler / Dodge / or Jeep dealer installing these kits regardless of vehicle
age or mileage.

Chrysler Tech.........

I believe at some point this bulletin was escalated to a safety recall....Ive done Quite a few of these within the past 2 or 3 years, and I distinctly remember a recall notice associated with it......I guess I could be wrong, but either way....The dealership will do it for free...and you will have the piece of mind , knowing it was done as it was intended.

Thanks guys but I'm in Australia and apparently that's not the case here. The Chrysler dealer here is one of the ones who quoted me

Hi Chrysler Tech,
That is an option, its still 550 Australian dollars to get the kit here from Belgium. Would you know of a cheaper way?
