Unfortunately, there is a strong demand for the airbags from 00-up celicas (the bags out of a 01 for instance fit an 05 model). I think you will not have any luck finding good belts by themselves, short of buying them from the dealer. Keep in mind you only need the retractor side, the female side can be had used because its not really part of the airbag system.

No, but whatever span of years the 2001 falls in.

I'll post the dimensions tomorrow, but the rear feet needed to be cut off, and the passenger rear fold lever needs to go too. On the car, I had to cut the tabe that the console side panels screw to. I will make my own when I mount thse back in. The tracks will pretty much only work in one position, and will give you limited fold room. They are tall, so they will take up a lot of space...but they're worth it. PM me if you decide you want more pics.

I have accounts at both Photobucket and Villiagephoto. I will post all the pics you want, email's just faster. That's why I gave that option. Pics and measurements will follow in the morning.
