Can you add top tether anchors to a 1990 Toyota Corolla?

Am I correct to assume that a 1990 Toyota Corolla would NOT have top tether anchors? Could they be put in? How much would they cost?

We're going to be spending the entire summer in CA and instead of renting a car for me we can buy a 1990 Corolla for about a 1/3 of the price of renting for 3 months. We can't afford to rent a 2nd car (by boyfriend will be renting one since he'll be working, but he'll be in LA and we'll be in San Diego). If we can't add top tether anchors to the old Corolla then maybe I can just switch cars with my mom (who has a 2006 Corolla and will only need to drive herself to and from work).

You can. The part number is 73709-12010, "Bracket Sub-Assembly, tether anchor." They're $12 each, or should be.

You're making me think of Top Gear, a car show on BBC2. They wanted to know if it'd be better to buy a car for $1000 on a trip to the US, or rent one for the week. They decided renting was much better. LOL But they weren't here three months. That's a great idea you have. :)
