      That’s definitely not what it is. Kid seat anchors have a square latch hole, not circular ones. Child seat retention clips are flat to minimize sideways movement - they are not circular like OPs image.

      Examples.

        You know what?

        I’m wrong.

        Serves me right for glancing at the image and getting all high and mighty about it.

      I don’t think so, the wheel well would be a strange place to anchor a child’s seat

        It’s definitely what it is. That’s it’s been poorly installed in a stupid place in the car doesn’t invalidat that.

        They are supposed to be bolted through the metal, so it’s likely this was an DIY installation.
