    You could always let your DP put it in himself, then have it checked by whoever you book it in to professionally, and then atleast you'll know if he's got it right or what he needs to do to make it right. I hope that makes sense.

    We had free fitting with our seat when we bought it by the guy certified at the shop. We did the above and DH enjoyed gloating when the guy said it was in perfectly.

    We had ours professionally installed in both cars (one base only) - one at baby bunting and one by a certified installer. I didn't want to risk getting it wrong.

    What did you end up deciding A? We got ours installed professionally because we weren't confident about doing it ourselves. If we were confident, we'd have just done it ourselves and saved the $$$.

    We have done both and i've been amazed at the difference of it when it has been done professionally. So sturdy and secure. They put extra clips on the seat belts and a roll of foam underneath the seat to get it in just the right position. The council has offered it as a free service a few times a year - advertised in the local paper.

    Well it's in. I'm not that happy about it. I'm going to get the place next to dp's work to check it over. It seems a bit to wobbly to me :/
