Car produce before year 1995 will be exempted from this new ruling. Besides that, the Perodua Kancil and Kenari produced between 1997 to mid-2004 is also exempted from the rear seat belt ruling. This is because this model produced during the period do not have anchorage point to fitted in the rear seat belt.
-
Perodua car produced between 2004 and 2005 do have anchorage point but do not have rear seatbelt installed due to cost cutting measure. Regard this, the road safety department had proposed a proposal to Perodua to get the rear seat belt installed at a special package offered.

The car owners are adviced to not having their seat belt being fitted in unauthorised workshop because retrofitting the rear seatbelt at anchorage points for seat belt as these workshop may jeopardise the safety aspect of your car and the passengers. So for your safety, just visit the manufacturer's workshop to get it installed.
