Hmmm well we're not to 18kg yet so i guess i'll cross that bridge when we come to it
And yep at the moment it seems no change up here but we're following the Vic laws anyway.

sounds like a plan

From what I understand the NSW laws were going to be the same as of Jan 2009, but nothing ever came out about it. Maybe they are changing it to Jan 2010 ?????

Z is still in the built in harness too (only 16.5kg at nearly 5yo!). Cookiemonster, when you clean the Maxi Rider, underneath the foam padding in the seat there is a little compartment where the extra harness attachement is stored. When you get that out you store the regular one in there as well.

i thought they were already enforced in NSW.
as we were told this 6 months ago when getting new seat for DD and its on the NSW RTA website.

Ahh okay, thanks for that. We have a Secure one which i got told is supposed to be no different but I didn't check for anything like that.
