Question What is the best baby seat?

My wife and I like to take a cruise with my 3 year old girl in the back and I pick her up from day care from time to time. The seat I have does not fit right in the back due to the deep dip in the seat and the head rest can not be moved. Anyone found the best baby seat for your Mustang? Mine is a 2010 GT Convertible.

She is still in a baby seat. I was looking at this one. She might be able to sit in a booster seat.

That one works perfect. I was about to suggest a child seat with a narrow anchored bottom because of the rear seats deep pockets. I used one similar to one but it was a Graco brand.

Also, the ones with the wider hollow bases tend to cause damage/wear/creases to the seats. I used to put a towel down under the car seat until I realized they made narrow solid bases. Lol This carried over to the booster seats as well. I lived and learned.

The "high back" booster seats work awesome as well.

I've had countless car seats with my 6 kids and the best by far is the last two I have.

Britax


That's the only one I recommend and it is by far the best in every way!

I would not buy anything else again. We have two because we have one for my wife's car and one for my truck.

The one you originally posted is the one we have in the wife's car. I can't recommend it enough.

I've found that the best solution to the car seat dilemma is a condom.

We use Recaro seats for my 4 year old, but the model we have won't fit in the backseat of the Mustange.
