Well I finally tried fitting the car seat in the Camaro, it only took me a month after our daughter was born to try it, it doesn't fit! In Arizona, kids have to be in a rearward facing car seat until they are past 1 year old. Does anybody know of a rearward facing child seat that will fit in the back seat of an f-body?

I never found a good rear-facing seat. They protrude so far forward that the front seat becomes unusable. The frames are huge, and to get them at the right angle in our seats you have to put a towel under the rear, which raises them even higher. As you may have noticed, even when fully upright your front seats still lean back. We just didn't use my car for kid-hauling during the first year.

When my daughter was almost a year old, I bought a front-facing seat that was one of the largest available but actually fit the rear mini-buckets better than most other seats. It almost resembles a racing seat more than a child seat. I don't remember the brand, but the model was "Husky". I'll try to remember to check the brand on the tag.
