The Falcon ute only has one baby anchor point which is behind the passenger seat on the back body panel. See exert below from owners manual.
One child restraint anchorage point is located behind the passenger seat. To gain access to the anchorage point, it is necessary to remove the small plug from the anchorage to install the appropriate bolt, lock washer, anchor fitting and spacer (where required). |

Does the car have a passenger airbag? That makes a big difference to whether you can or can't fit a child seat into the front row of a vehicle with only a single row of seats. Stupidly, that was the rule that allowed me to take my infant at the time son in my old van that had an anchor point installed for the seat anywhere in the least safe vehicle ever.

EXTREME HAZARD! Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it. |

Also read elsewhere that you can have the passenger side airbag disabled by Ford if in fact you need to have a baby seat fitted in that seat.
