    The safe n sound Pegasus doesn't have an anchor strap (i think!) And its relatively narrow to fit in back row. Also has anti-submaring clip thing so FF can't 'slide out' if she falls asleep.

    The tag that tells me the height weight specifications are under the seat in my car. I have to fold the seat up to look at it.
    Do you have a user manual? It might be in there if the seats were factory fitted. My car has anchor points I think at the top of the back door. They're all over the roof & on the back of the middle row seats in my car.
    To buy a seat, make sure you put it in, put her in it & put the seatbelt around it. So you know if it all fits right before you buy

    I will have to check the manual i think as the rear seat is a fold up seat which is built in.
    I hafve a 7 seater Toyota Kluger KX-R (if you find any info) - i am assuming with the rules in vic i should be able to have a booster seat from 4yrs old in there as lond as it doesn't have an anchor strap.
    There are no anchor points in the rear of the kluger.

    I've also e-mail Vid Roads and asked them specifically if there are any particular laws regarding age/height for the 3rd row etc.
    Better to be safe than sorry... we really only want to for when we are going somewhere with a few people and need the extra space in the front row (option to move the middle row forward to allow another adult in the back too).
    I wouldn't mind getting one that would suit DD1 right through to my nephew so he can fit in the back seat too.

    i know you don't have any anchor hooks in the back row now, have you checked to see if they can be fitted?
