Hyundai Coupe Seat Belt Extender
Buckle Up Comfortably In Your Hyundai Coupe
Coupe is the British name for the car America knew as the Tiburon and Korea as the Tuscani. It is a two-door with four seats, which means the front and the rear present completely different problems. Work out which row you are fitting first.
The Problem
At barely 1,330mm tall you drop down into a Coupe rather than step in, and the front buckle ends up low beside a shaped sports seat where your hand cannot easily reach. Behind, getting in means tilting a long front seat forward and folding yourself into a space you enter awkwardly, so the latch sits behind the hip rather than beside it. On a car now twenty years old or more, a stiffening retractor makes both worse.
The Solution
A certified extender brings the connection point back to where the hand already falls. One click into the car's buckle, one click with your original belt tongue. Nothing is cut, drilled, or modified, which matters on a car whose original parts are getting harder to find.

Which Generation Do You Have?
Two generations over twelve years, and they sit on different underpinnings, which matters when looking for related parts.
| Generation | Years | Worth Knowing |
|---|---|---|
| RD | 1996 to 2001 | Built on a platform derived from the Elantra. Facelifted in 1999, giving early and late cars. |
| GK | 2002 to 2008 | A dedicated coupe chassis rather than a saloon platform, with facelifts in 2005 and 2007. |
Searching For Parts? Try Tiburon
Coupe is what Hyundai called this car in Britain and most of Europe. North America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa knew it as the Tiburon, South Korea and Singapore as the Tuscani, and the 1999 to 2001 car was briefly the Turbulence at home.
Worth knowing when hunting for components, because the American market was far larger than the British one and Tiburon returns considerably more results than Coupe does. Searching a generic word like coupe is difficult in any case. All of those names cover the same vehicle, so tell us the badge and the year and we will work from the car itself.
Front Or Rear? The Answer Differs
Four seats behind two doors means the two rows face completely different obstacles. Three styles are available across our full extender range.
| Row | What Is In The Way | Usually Order |
|---|---|---|
| Front | A low seating position beside a shaped sports seat, with the stalk dropping into the gap between seat and console. | Rigid, 3 or 5 inch |
| Rear | Awkward entry past a tilted front seat leaves the passenger settled with the latch behind the hip. | Rigid for access, regular if only the length falls short |

How It Works
Nothing is cut, drilled, or modified. The whole thing takes about five seconds and lifts straight back out whenever you want it gone.
Click the extender's tongue into your seat belt receptacle.
Buckle your seat belt into the extender. Takes about five seconds, no tools needed.
To remove it, press the release button just like a normal belt.
Pick The Shortest Length That Works
We recommend adding only the minimum length you need to buckle comfortably. More webbing is not safer, it just adds slack.
1.Check The Belt First
On a car this age, make sure a tired retractor is not the real problem before you buy anything.
2.Pick The Row And The Side
Front or rear, then left or right. All four are individual positions and each is a separate order.
3.Need Help?
Send your year, generation and seat position, plus a photo of the buckle, and we will confirm.
