as there have been a couple of new arrivals to the zed scene over the last couple of weeks, i thought ide start a thread listing the baby seats that will (and wont) fit in a zed with no modification. as i really struggled to get one when we first had our littleun. if anyone has a baby seat fitted to thier zed, or have tried and found that one wont fit, please could you list it here so that anyone wanting a child seat for the zed can have somewhere to start their search. cheers

No its fine Allan. only with cars that have airbags unless you can turn them off

our recaro only goes in the front with alana in the back. rear belts are miles short of fitting even if you get one that fits on the seat but the recaro one i have fits in the front fine

Yeah, the length of the belts are a real issue. The seat I really wanted was the M&P cybex 2, which has no seat belts for the child but a sort of structured cushion infront ( you tube it, very clever and incredibly safe) but even the front zed seat belt isn't long enough

 

Something else you should be aware of is something called buckle crunch. It's basically where the buckle and latch are touching where the seatbelt goes through the seat (again YouTube will best demonstrate) and causes the seat to fail.

 

Oh and yes, you can fit a rear facing seat in the front as long as the airbags are deactivated for the passenger zone. It's not illegal, even if air. If you go on the think road safety website, it's got all the rule for child seats fully explained
