We installed ours (one in each car) around 34 weeks and had them checked by Kidsafe over here in WA. I'm glad we did as although we had apparently done a good job, the guy tweaked a few things and also showed us a few secrets about our car seats. Was well worth the $25!
He also told us that most car seats he checks are installed incorrectly by parents. A frightening thought!
PS: when I said 'installed incorrectly', the guy was referring to the position of the straps and the headrest (where applicable) and often parents hadn't reclined the car seats into the newborn position correctly or at all for that matter. He also said the seat belt needs to be tight but the seats are meant to move a little as well.
