The car seat and base were given to me and I don’t have the instructions on how to install it into my car.

You can try this site and if that fails then the next site will install it for free plus check it out for you..

I don’t like my in-laws car seat installation in the Toyota Camry. I can reinstall the seat to feel better, but I really don’t like my 3 year old riding in the Camry. I’m concerned about rear collisions from larger vehicles. Is my wife’s Expedition (car seat in the middle of 2nd row), or my F250 (seat in back seat, passenger side) than the seat in the back seat of a Toyota Camry?
I understand the roll over chances. The 2008 Expedition seems less likely than its predecessors. Roll over isn’t as dangerous to me as the rear collision. I’ve experienced versions of both. The Camry being lower to the ground is part of my concern from a rear collision from a larger/higher vehicle.

I would go with the Toyota in the middle seat only because its lower to the ground…

I want to get custom seats for my car. id like to customize a two tone seats for 5 seater car. how much would it cost for custom leather seats and installation? and is there any way i can customize my dashboard?

A complete custom interior, including headliner and carpet, will run anywhere from $3500 on up, depending on the car and the exact work that you want done.

My son has recently grown out of his infant carrier but my husband and I are going to be really tight on money for the next 3 months.
My SIL gave us one of her extra carseats to use for the time being until we can buy a new one.

Well, my SIL is pretty stupid about most things. She had her 8 mo LO forward facing and just generally doesn’t know anything about safety (or care).

So she gives me this Cosco Summit carseat… I asked her if it was forward facing only or convertible. She said convertible and told me there was instructions on how to turn it rear facing on the side pannel. Well of course, there’s no instructions, I have no idea if this is even a convertible carseat, and if it is, I have no clue how to install if rear-facing.

So, my questions are, is the Cosco Summit even a convertible carseat?
How do I install it rear facing?

I tried going to the Cosco website and typing in the serial number and it comes up with nothing!

The numbers on the carseat are like this:
22-260-TRP
11/06/2003 DH2C
Thanks everyone! I didn’t think it was RF by looking at it either.
I think we can probably swing for the 50 one at wal-mart right now… come September, our finacial situation will be a different story and we will be able to purchase a better one.

I know I’m a little late with this response but if you have car insurance you can buy car seats through most insurance companies for as little at fifteen dollars. All of our car seats were bought through Allstate Insurance and I’ve paid 15 plus shipping for all of them (four as a matter of fact) so its come out to about $20 after shipping costs. They are un-used, brand new, straight from the manufactor car seats. You should check in to this because the car seats we are getting sale for about $150 at walmart and we pay $20. They are durable and really nice!

I plan on putting a pair of 4 way speakers in the front and a pair of 4 way speakers in the rear seats area of my car. Do you think this is a good idea? Or should I do something else like put a pair of 4 way speakers in the front and a pair of 2 way speakers in the back? I dont plan on getting an amplifier or subwoofer. My car has the original factory speakers. I plan on buying 2 pairs of 4 way Pioneer speakers and a Pioneer cd player for the head unit. Any comments or suggestions?

Stay with the 4 way speakers.
The 4 way speakers will give a better effect.
