Question on convertible seats with 2 door

BeetleLinz1125 · September 2011

Any certain kind that work well for you?

Has anyone actually even done this (OK I know it's probably been done...)

But how much of a PITA is it really? The car I normally take to work is a 2 door accord, and DH usually takes our 4 door cavalier because FIL used to drive it and it's full of smoke and its pretty disgusting. I'm just wondering if I should try to have that car deep cleaned so we can put the convertible seat in that instead of the accord.

Buying a new car isn't really an option....I also have a VW beetle that I'm trying to get rid of because the transmission went out...and I'm still making payments on. I doubt a convertible seat will fit in that. Then if it does, we can't all three fit. I just want a car that the three of us fit safely in and works...is that too much to ask lol?

My husband did it for 4 years with our oldest and a crappy Pontiac Sunfire. Now that we're just about to move our second to the convertible seat though, we bought a new car for him last weekend that's a 4 door. With just one, the seat was in the middle and he'd basically climb in and buckle her in. But I had no idea how he was going to strap the baby in rear-facing in a convertible seat when there were two seats back there.

I had a MINI Cooper.

We used a Britax Marathon at first and then switched to a Combi Zeus 360 (it swivels so you put the kid in FF and then turn them around).

It can be done, though it's not the most convenient.
