Any help, id appeciate it!

Diono Radian RXT works well for front-facing. Not sure how it or others would do rear-facing.

I have a Graco SnugRide SnugLock 35 DLX. The passenger's seat becomes useless for anyone other than a very small person when the seat is in, but it fits with no issues and even some room to spare when the lil man is riding rear seat shotgun.

Rear facing seats will be a pain in the ass. I tried that once, although the base and seat might fit in the middle of the two rear seats, getting the seat itself out will be a major pain. Also my sons stroller wouldn't go in the trunk so that sucked. Dodge challengers are much better suited for rear facing seats.

If you have a convertible then it's much better and easily accessible.

For a booster I’m using the Graco Affix. Happy with it. So is my almost 5 year old.

You can get it in a few different colors as well. I have “Tangerine” with my Kalahari interior. Wife has “Atomic” in her Benz with the AMG Cranberry interior. I also have the Graco “Turbo” in black/grey in my truck. All match surprisingly well. Got all the seats on Amazon.

Here it is in my 2018 ‘Vert. I’ve since added a rigid seatbelt extender in a “Wididi” seatbelt buckle holder. (A red silicon block to make it much easier to buckle/unbuckle.) The “Wididi” blocks are on Amazon also. They keep the seatbelt extender vertical and just slightly offset from the edge of the seat. They also cover the release on the OEM seatbelt buckle, so the little ones don’t accidentally release the extender.

After a lot stopped, we ended up with Evenflo booster seat and Cosco rear facing. Our goal was something not too expensive and easier to carry around (My Camaro is just weekend toy)

Well here is some tips for who will need child seat in future.
Evenflow booster seat was easy to carry and it fits perfect in our back seat. Some booster seat was too wide that it was hard to buckle her up and it was just not fitting right. Diono Radian was perfect But that doesnt work in rear facing in Camaro (Super slim but tall), so keep that in mind. Graco Turbo something Elite was also slim side that fit nicely in rear seat as well (I think older models are wider, so dont get confused)

For rear facing or infant...well good luck! I picked Cosco because it was SUPER light.

Thanks guys for advice!
