Since kiddo can't ride RF anymore, I personally would not consider any of the convertible high wight harness options on the list -- the Apex could be a good choice so long as the vehicle seatback provides head support at least up to eye level: consider the tallest setting for when kiddo eventually uses it as a booster.... The Regent would keep kiddo harnessed the longest, but I'm not sure off hand how easy it is to use in your vehicle since the new installation advice was released Also, if you travel or if kiddo rides in other vehicles, then the Regent will be too cumbersome.

What is your budget?

	Rear Facing Car Seats A rear-facing seat is one in which the infant faces the back of the car. Always install a rear-facing seat in the back seat of your car. This is the safest position for an infant. NEVER place a rear-facing seat in the front seat of a vehicle with passenger airbags.

	Convertible Car Seats Convertible seats are for infants and toddlers. The seat can be used as a rear-facing seats for younger children, and switched to a forward-facing seat on the child's first birthday if the child weighs at least 20 pounds. However, experts recommend keeping the child in a rear-facing position until he or she outgrows the weight or height allowed by the safety seat.

	Booster Seat A booster seat raises your child up so that the car's lap and shoulder belts fit correctly. The lap belt should fall across the upper thighs. The shoulder belt should go across the middle of the shoulder and chest. A booster seat is used for older children up to about 80 pounds. Some states have passed laws requiring booster seats for children up to age 8 or 80 pounds. Check your state's law.
