You could PM Bonnie (CRS) and ask her. Or you could just go to the BF and try various models in your car. I think the GoSafe/IGC ones are the smallest but they also outgrow them earlier coz they are shorter up the back.

we got the safe n sound ahr a few weeks back and had a thread re that as it meant we lost a lot of leg room....and turns out they are all the same size for safe n sound and everyone seems to have the same problem anyways...so we have sacrificed a bit of leg room....

hehehe ... seems I really need to have a look around OhBaby abit more aye Maya

What an awesome place Ohbaby is

rubydooby I really like the look of them ... is the covers easy to keep clean?

Bombshell ... we already loose legroom with the capsule we've got ... so I suppose it would be the same with the rear facing sns ... bummer is that none of the whanau is short either ...

How things have changed ... no forward facing until one year old unlike when my first two were little, they were forward facing from around 6 months old ... rear facing is obviously far safer ...

Heh, yes that's my website (and me, on the "Expert" panel!). I definitely hear ya on the whole "takes up too much space" thing! That's why my youngest has to sit behind me in his SnS seat and the eldest, I had to import a seat, that can sit very upright (behind my tall husband) and means I can continue to rear-face him! (he's two). As for what seats can fit in what vehicles, that's almost impossible to determine as there are so many different models/makes/years of vehicles and not to mention seats themselves.
