Just hope they do it as good as those factory-installed ones.. if not, then it beats the purpose of rear passenger safety, if the belts malfunctions..

What kind of company lacks the foresight to install rear seat belts in the first place! Surely they have a development section that maintains links with the driving regulations of the countries in which they sell their cars! Sack the CEO!

No rear seatbelts=save money. Now they must have think why didn’t I put seatbelts in the first place…

I hope when they mean “free”, that means there will be no increase of the car’s selling price. Year 2008 price is same as 2009.

proton already made a very big statement on this about a month ago already, to install for free the centre lap belts to its cars that do not have it, it was in all the daily papers as well as on tv.
