eclecticflower said:Wow, that title screamed "threesome" at first , then I figured nah, he really means another LEAF :roll: , but first impressions are tricky sometimes. And thankyouOB was just teasing you about a LEAF being a bigger concern to you than your wife. She just might agree with him!
Best wishes on your future little bundle of joy!
How is the rear visibility once the seat is installed (rear-facing, if you did that).bradbissell said:I second the idea of getting the Sunshine Kids (Diono) seats. We currently have two but bought them specifically incase we ever have a third kid. They are very sturdy and narrow. They are not as easy to install as the Britaxs that my in-laws have, but they aren't terrible. As a side benefit, the Diono steats are low enough to the seat that my 4 year old can easily climb in to the seat herself and buckle herself in, and our 2 year old can almost climb in without help.
Somewhere I posted a picture, but I don't remember where. However, The seats are HUGE and as I said they don't fit into a Volkswagen Passat (whatever they are called in the US) or a Jetta, but into the Leaf (and only barely). But I can even fit in 3 seats for the 5-7 year olds and they are huge. However, I have to use either two of our Britax Kidfix and one of the Cybex seats or 2 Cybex and one Britax in the middle. Else they won't fit. But with the baby seats in the middle (Britax and maxicosi) it works fine though seat belt fastening is a problem. I can't use the isofix system for any of the seats while there are 3 seats since the attachment points are too far to the middle of the bench. And the newest generation of Britax seats wouldn't fit either with their built in side protection system (SICT or something) which is approximately 10 additional cm thick on each side...GetOffYourGas said:eclecticflower said:SmilingWhileSailing- I don't know what the laws are in Norway, but in the US we have strict safety laws which has led to large, bulky car seats. In NYS, all children under 8 years must be in at least a booster seat.
Funny thing is - what blocks my view now is the backseat headrest in front of the child seat. I had taken it out, but had to put it back so that I could install the mirror for the baby.bradbissell said:Rear facing will block some of your visibility, but that is the case for all car seats.
