The first thing that came to mind WAS the Sunshine Kids Radian...it is the narrowest convertible seat on the market...my ONLY concern is the 3rd row seatbelts. Let me explain. The buckle portion that comes up from the bight of the seat..if the plastic cover is pretty long, then it likely won't work with the Radian. The belt path (where the seatbelt goes through to attach the seat to your vehicle) on the Radian is very low, so SOME vehicles are incompatible with this particular seat. Do you have a USA Baby or a specialty baby store near you that possibly carries the Radian? Sunshine Kids has 2 Radians. The Radian 65 (which will harness to 65lbs) and the radian 80 (which will harness to 80lbs). There only difference between the 2 is the weight limits--they are both the same shell, so same height.

Another idea is to head to a carseat tech and see if they can help configure some seats for you

congrats!

	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.

	Sunshine Kids Radian 80 or 65 - Click for more info If "the Sunshine Kid's Radian 80 convertible car seat is (probably) the only car seat you will ever need," the "probably" part of this statement comes into play when you directly compare the Radian 80 with the Britax Regent. While the Radian 80 has a very high weight capacity, the seat width is only 10" vs. the Regent's 14" seat. The Britax Regent may be a bit wider, but it is very bulky, is only forward facing, and does not fold like the Radian 80. Because the Radian 80 is so narrow, you can potentially put three of them side by side in the back seat. Three Regents side by side? Impossible.
