The seat behind the driver in a four-door Dakota is the one most often used when a single passenger rides in back.
This three-point belt retracts and locks, and it latches with an end release buckle.
The rear passenger side belt and the rear center belt are listed separately.
Rear belts in family trucks often wear from child seats being put in and taken out again and again.
Check the rear floor anchor and upper mount behind the driver before ordering.
Tug the new strap after fitting to confirm the reel locks.
Sun through the rear door glass fades rear webbing over time.
The four-door Dakota's rear seat had room for three, with a center lap belt in the middle.
A fresh rear belt makes the back seat ready for passengers again.
Many owners replace all three rear belts at once for an even look.
The rear doors of the four-door Dakota opened wide enough for adults to climb in comfortably.
Older rear webbing that has curled or frayed should be retired.
The rear driver side place of the four-door Dakota gets regular use from adults on short trips and kids on school runs.
This single belt suits trucks where only that side has worn out.
Rear belts in four-door Dakotas mount to the floor and the C-pillar area, so inspect both points before ordering.
If the curb-side rear belt is also worn, its own listing keeps the colors matched.
Child seat straps can scuff rear webbing over time, so look for fuzzing along the edges.
Rear door glass lets sun fall right on this belt, which can fade the webbing.
A black or charcoal strap hides scuffs from shoes and child seats.
After fitting, pull the belt out fully and let it wind back to check the reel.
