    BMW didn't make the lower latch anchors standard until 2000-2001 models i believe.

    I know the dealerships used to charge $500 plus to install them in 1999 and older models.

    I'm sure you can get a retro-fit online somewhere.

    Sorry, they were not standard until 2000 and even then are only uppers.
    Here is a retro from the excellent Magnum: http://www.magnum1.com/BMW-740/740_P...chors-740.html

    It's really an easy job and the cost / time spent fitting them is minimal for our kids safety. My write-up pretty much explains it all, but let me know if you have any questions.

    Anchors for child seats are overrated.
