Use of improper attachment points will impair system
performance.
Weak tail strap anchor points will not withstand the forces in an
accident and increase the risk of personal injury.
Never attach the tail strap to anchorages intended for the tether
straps of child seats that are found on the filler panels behind the
rear seats of some passenger cars or the luggage area of some
hatchbacks or station wagons. These anchor points are not strong
enough to withstand the forces of an accident and are not
intended for adult belts.
Harness belt systems may only be installed at suitable anchor
points for seat belt systems as originally installed by the vehicle
manufacturer.
For suitable anchor points for make, model and model year of
your vehicle, see Certified Vehicle List (Vehicle Reference List). If
in doubt, ask your dealer to show you where these anchor points
are located.
These figures show the general location and suitability of seat
belt anchor points installed as standard equipment in specific
Subaru STi model passenger cars.

illustration on page 6 and verify the “Model Tag” as pictured
above (sewn into the tail strap) matches the model of your

be bent, modified, impeded or restricted in their range of
motion.
