Anyone find a child seat that fits?

Booster seat is much easier but after my son climbs in, I gotta put my right foot in the back footwell and climb halfway in to get the seatbelt out and buckle him in. At least I don't have to lift the 50 pound sack of potatoes up into the seat. Downside is he likes to put his shoes on the back of the passenger. I've given up on keeping a functional child car in mint condition.

This has not been a problem as my wife prefers to sit behind me and travel next to the baby. Being on the shorter side with me at 5'6 and wife at 5'4, this has been pretty doable.

So far, the BRZ baby experience has been much better than I expected!

I don't know why the OP was giving ashtray some 'tude when ashtray was being diplomatic about calling the OP a less-than-responsible-person for wanting to squeeze his pregnant wife into the front passenger seat with his 3 year old behind her. My baby momma is only 5ft tall and she had her seat pushed all the way back and had to sit on a pillow in order to be somewhat comfortable(she never was). There is absolutely no way that there could be anyone sitting behind her.

If I could go back in time, I would get a Nuna Pipa. The base has the latch system for easy installation/removal and the actual carrier is 1 inch less deep than the Graco 30. Only catches are that it costs $300 and your baby will sweat like a mofo in it.

Is this the Graco Click Connect you guys are talking about: https://www.toysrus.com/product/inde...uct_skn=171914

Having a kid soon and want to keep the BRZ (mainly from a financial point of view).

Yes, looks like it. The price seems to be a bit on the higher side though. You can get them cheaper from Amazon. Or you could also try the Chicco Keyfit 30 which has been mentioned by others.

First off, CONGRATS on the new addition!

If you're looking at a travel system and intend to use the BRZ, there are very few systems that will fit because of the size of the stroller. The Maclaren Easy Traveler and Nuna Pepp will fit for sure.

I would personally spend the extra $150 to make my life easier with a newborn by getting this:

Everything fits in the BRZ with more room to spare. Heck, you could probably fit the Pepp in the cabin instead of the trunk if you need the trunk space.

Because I'm crazy...

coccoro combi (the hideous green thing)
and
a booster seat

My 5 year old sits behind me with his fee to the left and the right of my seat. It works, for now. I am 5'11" and this is comfortable for me.

My other son will be born in a few weeks and will go on the other side. A normal sized adult won't fit in front of this. I tried sitting in the seat to test it out and my knees touch the glove box door. It would only be good enough for short (<15 minutes) trips.

I was going to buy the 2013 sti buuuut 10k more was not doable at the time.

OH SHIT! You new/soon-to-be dad's need to check this bad mofo out! With this thing, the twin is a more practical baby carrier than ever!

poor kid never got out of his carseat the whole day! Nothing like baby bed sores to say I love you.

In reality, it looks like a nice piece of tech.

Neat idea, but like the previous person said, my kid would "want out" eventually, so I usually opt to just carry her anyway.

My expirience is that all-in-one and grow-with baby products are cumbersome, heavy and a waste of money in the long run.

Graco system I'm looking at you.

[berkbrzfan]

Just wanted to let anyone interested in the Graco Click Connect 30 Travel System know that the stroller can be accommodated in the trunk if the cup holders are removed. They will have to be detached every time you place it in the trunk and put back on when you want to use it with the seat. And it is fairly easy to remove and fix them as well.

I can't remember if I've mentioned this already, but the Recaro Performance Sport fits great and my little 1.5yo girl LOVES it. Its forward facing only, so you can use it as early as 1 year old in some states. She gets so excited to climb into my car while clapping and giggling, saying "go go go!" lol

She's tall for her age, I think 33"? Can't remember exactly, but the passenger seat can be about 70% back and my wife is plenty comfy with lots of foot room for the little monster.

I currently have a Recaro ProRide in the back for my daughter. Probably would only fit someone under 5'6" in the passenger front or shorter. It's pretty darn big, but the bottom base section fits nice and snug in the seat indent in the back. She loves the car and if i'm going out with her she asks for daddy's car and says "faster faster!" when we leave our development.
