Best Carseat for the camaro?

ARCTIC · 04-05-2018, 09:24 AM

I've got a little guy who will be graduating soon from a rear facing to a forward facing seat and I'd like to get something that fits better. We currently have a 15 convertible and have it traded for a 17 convertible that we haven't taken delivery on. It's awful tight for my wife in the passenger seat with the rearward facing seat right behind her.

Any forward facing car seat works. My daughter is in a graco and it works fine. I also have a 17 vert

Recaro

Especially if you have matching fronts.

+1 on graco forward facing in the rear middle seat with LATCH connectors.

Yeah pretty much any brand seat you want that fits your kid...as long as it's forward facing. Rear facing is a little more tricky in these cars as you need one that is more compact since space is limited.

They make narrow base car seats now. They fit pretty good.

Unfortunately, I will not have Recaro seats but that's not to say the little guy can't have one

I'll look further into this

Thanks!

Yeah the middle seat thing, if it’s what I think it is that would be great.

Also what brands are the narrow seats

The "middle" seat is using the the both inner LATCH loops. Works perfect.

(One LATCH from drivers side and one from passenger side)

Correct the middle seat is what we do and dosent require adjusting seats for leg room. Baby has leg room as well.

Please take pics. I am getting ready to get a new car soon. Between a Chevy SS or Camaro SS. Really want the Camaro but the back seat worries me. I would love to see pics of either rear or front facing.
