Excellent Reminder.

These are pretty narrow, tipsy SUVs.
Always buckle up and don't leave the driveway until your passengers have done the same.

It's often not your own mistakes on the road that cause a rollover, but some other jack-A - Cant risk it!

Toyota Seat Belt Extender
No idea how much you spent on yours, but this is from Toyota's website:

"If you have trouble latching the seat belt or don't have enough belt material to move around with the belt on, please make an appointment to visit your local Toyota dealership with the vehicle. Seat belt extenders range from 6 to 18 inches, in increments of 3 inches. The dealership will take measurements while you are seated in the vehicle and then order the seat belt extender from Toyota at no charge."

According to this, extenders are free from Toyota. The above statement isn't vehicle or age limited from what I can see.

Well, the nearest Toyota dealer to me is an hour away, but it would be cool if they gave them away for free. Hard to believe they would do that for a 20 year old vehicle but they might. I'd spend more in gas to go there twice than the $20 for this one.

Call them and check. Maybe they'll ship them. With a safety item like this, I think it's a matter of addressing injury liabilities for them. You know, "The seat belt doesn't fit me." "Well then, you're gonna have to drive without one." That conversation isn't going to happen, especially over a $30 extension. I think I recall seeing this same statement from them in owner's manuals decades ago. Toyota seat belt latches are probably unchanged forever, and that's the only fitment needed.
