Seatbelt Planet's center lap belt for 1983-1988 Toyota Pickup standard cab trucks gives the middle bench rider a fixed two-point belt. The hardware is included and the belt meets FMVSS 209 and 302.
Where It Fits
Fitment: the bench middle in 1983-1988 Toyota standard cabs. It does not fit the T-100.
Color Options
Pick from 52 webbing colors, 13 premium.
Why Replace Old Belts?
The center belt is often the one that goes missing first in an older truck, and a new one makes the bench usable for three.
Care Tips
Buckle the belt across the seat when unused to keep it off the floor.
About the 1983-1988 Toyota Pickup Center
The 1984 redesign gave Toyota's pickup a squarer, tougher look, and these trucks are still common on back roads and trails.
Before You Install
Lift the bench cushion and check the center anchors for rust.
Good to Know
One center belt.
Without a reel, it rests flat.
Match the color to the outboard belts.
Toyota's 1984 redesign brought a new body, a stronger frame and the 22R-E fuel-injected engine to many trucks. Bench seat models were common in base and work trucks, and the center position often went unused for years.
Lift the bench cushion and check the center floor anchors for rust before fitting. Trucks used off-road or in snowy climates often need small repairs here.
Being a two-point strap with no reel, it rests flat when unused and leaves the outer riders room.
Choose the same color as the outboard belts to give the bench a matched look.
Seatbelt Planet notes this belt is for standard cab trucks only.
Fresh belts help when selling a truck, because buyers notice missing or damaged restraints.
The belt is a simple, reliable design that should last for many years in normal use.
Keep the buckle free of grit, which can collect in a work truck's cab.
Center belts get little use, so the new belt should stay in good condition for a long time. Keep it buckled across the bench when the seat is empty so it does not slip down between the cushions.
It suits standard cab pickups only (no T-100) and the middle seat only.
This center belt is sewn once a shade is picked. Matching the outboard belts gives a clean, finished bench, and a center belt that matches is a detail that buyers notice when looking over an older Toyota truck.
Toyota's 22R engine made these trucks famous for running well past 200,000 miles, and many are still on their first engine. A cab with fresh belts matches that kind of longevity.
