These hooks are in the cars that are newer than 2001 and with some of the Volkswagen from 1998. There is a very good chance that these hooks are already in your car, they are often processed with the Isofix logo on the upholstery of the car. a zipper that you can easily reach. Which is sometimes the case with older cars that hide the hooks between the trim, you will have to search for some time. The hooks are standard left and right in the rear. With this system you attach the car seat directly to the chassis of the car, so in many cases you no longer need the seat belt to fasten the seat. That makes it easier for you and more secure.

You also need a car seat made of a chassis with mounting hooks. extends the mounting hooks and clicks them into the mounting points in the car. Move the front of the seat left and right, so you can feel the seat is really tight. With the Baby and Toddler car seats you always need a third attachment point. The car seat remains in place in the event of a collision. This can be a support. You place this firmly on the bottom of the car or an extra strap, also called top tether.
