All carseats can be installed with just the seatbelt. Latch isn't safer, it's supposed to be easier(and that isn't always the case).

The radian65 is a very narrow seat. It can be a tricky install though.

You also may want to consider the Cosco Scenera...it's $43 and change at Wal-mart. It's pretty narrow and an easy to deal with seat. be sure to read over the car seat section of your car manual AND the car seats manual. If your seat belts don't lock, you'll need to use a locking clip. A car seat tech can help you learn how to do that.

I also reccomend leaving your granddaughter Rear Facing. It's 4x safer than FF.

	Forward Facing Car Seats A forward-facing car seat is one in which the child sits facing the front of the car. The seat should be installed in the back seat of your vehicle. Most forward-facing only seats are for children above 20 pounds.

	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.

	LATCH LATCH stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren. It is a system mandated by the Federal government in an effort to standardize and simplify the installation of child restraints without using the vehicle's seat belt system. New vehicles and child safety seats manufactured on and after September 1, 2002 will be equipped with the LATCH system. Cars, minivans, and light trucks will be required to have anchor points between the vehicle's seat cushion and the seat back in at least two rear seating positions, and a top tether anchor (with the exception of convertibles). Child safety seats will have a lower set of attachments that fasten to the vehicle anchors. Most forward-facing child safety seats will also have a top strap (tether) that attaches to the top anchor in the vehicle.
