Childrens car seat problems?

Everything that doesn't belong in the previous categories probably belongs here. Interiour (how are the seats mounted? how to remove the CEM?) and exteriour (how to replace the popup-lights shock absorbers or a door) are discussed here!

Childrens car seat problems?

Post by Themasteryeti » Sat Aug 27, 2022 2:11 pm

Just went over to halfords to pick up a car seat so I can take the sprogs out and about and the car seat doesn't seam very secure, once all strapped in I can pull the car seat out like 6/7inches which definitely doesn't seem safe so I've returned the seat for now
So a question for any 480 owners with kids, what car seats are you guys using? I have a almost 3 year old and a 4month old (realized the baby's backwards facing seat also don't fit as the seatbelts aren't long enough 😩)
