Chevrolet 2008 Equinox Owner's Manual page 49

The top tether anchors for each rear seating position are
located on the back of the rear seatback. You may need
to adjust the rear compartment storage panel/cover in the
rear cargo area to access the anchors. Be sure to use an
anchor located on the same side of the vehicle as the
seating position where the child restraint will be placed.
Do not secure a child restraint in a position without a
top tether anchor if a national or local law requires that
the top tether be attached, or if the instructions that
come with the child restraint say that the top tether
must be attached.
Accident statistics show that children are safer if they
are restrained in the rear rather than the front seat.
See Where to Put the Restraint on page 1-40 for
additional information.
