You could either bring your own or contact someone from babyonthemove.co.nz and have one pre arranged? They're a lovely bunch and will make sure you get one that fits your car :)]]> Thu, 09 Aug 2007 16:07:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194497&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194497 <![CDATA[Rental cars and baby seats? : I thought the front seat would...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194350&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194350 Author: peanut butter

I thought the front seat would be totally out as most cars have airbags now.]]> Thu, 09 Aug 2007 13:04:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194350&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194350 <![CDATA[Rental cars and baby seats? : My friend came to visit me a couple...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194347&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194347 Author: mamanee

My friend came to visit me a couple of weeks ago and she had a rental car. Some of them you can't put the babyseat in the back seat, but for all of them you can put the convertible carseats in the front seat. I guess you could ask if they can provide one with a carseat?

We used Hertz. We have used them maybe 3 times now ourselves and my parents use them heaps as they travel there at least once a month.

They have some really good specials too!

Amy, which company did you use in Chc?

We hired a car when we went to CHC, we found the company to be fantastic! The seat was more than we could have asked for. It was obviously used but in very tidy condition. It certainly was secure and had been bolted in as we would have expected.

I work by the airport and if you want I can go and check it out for you.

thanks BS will keep that in mind although I think we might be able to beg steal or borrow from family it just means having to get people to meet us at the airport and that is a hassle noone needs.]]> Thu, 09 Aug 2007 12:02:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194279&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194279 <![CDATA[Rental cars and baby seats? : check with the rental car people...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194277&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194277 Author: Bombshell

if you get stuck I will loan you our pod for the week.]]> Thu, 09 Aug 2007 11:59:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194277&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194277 <![CDATA[Rental cars and baby seats? : sparkle wrote:yay, we&#039;ll...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194262&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194262 Author: peanut butter

Ok, we will be heading up to Auckland in September when bubs is about 4-5weeks old. We are hoping to get a rental car so we can get around. Has anyone used ones that provide baby seats or are they all for older babies? Also somewhere (cant remember which) said the car has a baby bolt so I guess we can bring our own seat and install it in there.

Any suggestions??

We have a convertible seat, not a capsule]]> Thu, 09 Aug 2007 11:13:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9778&PID=194239&title=rental-cars-and-baby-seats#194239
