...as my husband is really tall (6 foot 7) and wouldn't be able to put the seat all the way back where he needs it to because the car seat would get in the way.
Haha lol yes, I should have thought to mention that, too!! DH is an inch or two shorter than yours, but yes, he needs his legroom

Thanks very much ladies, now I have something to mull over I actually have the carseat my parents use in their car at my house atm so I might fiddle around when I have some spare time and see which way I think would work best for us.
Thanks again!!
