car seat for a 1998 Honda CRV

[mommabear]

Please help, we need a recommendation for a rear facing convertible car seat for our 1998 Honda CRV that will not cost an arm and a leg. We bought one that was impossible to install and now we are not sure what to get. The site suggested a Britax Marathon but it is expensive so was wondering if there were any suggestions that might be less costly. Our son is almost 8 months and 21+lbs and tall for his age so we need some thing that can grow with him and since he is still up every 2-3 hours at night my ability to research is not very good.
thank you
