Mothercare?

Frankly, I had no idea that many Indian cars had the ISOFIX system. Which ones are these? I have an Aveo but have the standard 'seat belt' type infant and child seats. Honestly, haven't bothered to check though stupid:

I contacted mothercare. they sell pretty good brands (britax, maxi cosi, etc.) but don't sell any models with ISOFIX feature.

hmm... My guess is all cars that are in 15 Lac + price segment have ISOFIX. But I have also heard Accent and few other cars have ISOFIX. Maybe other members can post more details.

PS: I wish my thread hadn't been merged. It is more about ISOFIX than childseat.

THanks for the information. I don't know how I missed it.

btw, my little devil is 4 years old. :) Planning for a booster seat

I bought an infant car seat from Mothercare for my one-month old (well bought it before he was born:)). Now I intend using it mostly in my Wagon R (wifey's daily drive). I tried to instal it in Wagon R yesterday but couldn't really get the seat belt around it fasten it properly. Here is the one I bought from Shoppers Stop.

Now I didn't try it earlier because the seat belt harnesses were all buried under the rear seat (sine they weren't being used earlier). Can anyone help me with this? I am thinking about going to MASS to ask them if they can fit a longer seat belt to accomodate the car seat? Any other suggestions?

Good news is that we were blessed with our first son on 24th of Jan this year.

He is 4.5mnths now. I am searching for a similar seat as following.

which brand or undbranded ones. ANd above all where and how much. (preferably in Delhi or AHmedabad)

Thanks

This is not what you should get. For infants, rear-facing seats are recommended till they are 12-15 months old or reach a certain weight and height. Check these out at Mothercare outlets in Delhi-NCR. I picked up one of the rear-facing seats for my six-month old and he just loves it.

we have a convertible car seat which works rear facing as well as front facing once they grow up. always follow the instructions in the seat. I think 1 year or 20 pounds whichever occurs later decides when to turn them forward. recline them at les than 45 degrees.

infants necks are too weak for a frontal crash if facing forward.

and Congrats!

thanks for the advice.

thats a very useful link.

I saw one a couple of days back in Khan Market (several car accessories shops are there.). It might be cheaper than buying over the internet.

Got this baby seat two months back. Costed me Rs. 5,000/-
