Toyota Prius Seat Belt Extender
Seat Belt Extender for the Toyota Prius
The Prius has been on sale since 1997 and was the car that brought hybrids into the mainstream. Along the way it grew into a small family of models, the 7 seat Prius v, the compact Prius c known as the Aqua in Japan, and the plug-in Prius Prime, and in any of them the belt can still fall short of the buckle. This extender adds the length you need. Choose from four sizes and three colours.
The Quick Answer
This is a seat belt extender made for the Toyota Prius. It adds 12cm, 23cm, 25cm or 36cm of belt length. You push it into the buckle, click your belt into it, and drive. All sizes and all colours fit every seat in the car.
Names People Use for the Prius
Depending on where you live or which Prius family member you drive, it may carry another name. All of these are covered by this extender.

⚠ When the Belt Falls Short
A thick coat, a larger frame, a sore back or a baby bump can leave the buckle just out of reach. Twisting and stretching on every trip gets tiring fast.

With 12cm to 36cm of extra length, the belt meets your hand halfway. You sit down, click, and go.
Made for the Prius
Fits the buckle in the front seats and the rear seats, including the Prius v's third row.
Click and Go
No tools and no setup. Push it in until you hear the click.
Steel and Tough ABS
A stainless steel tongue inside a strong plastic body made for daily use.
Match Your Interior
