Exclamation Recommendations for a non-latch convertible seat

My mother in law is going to be driving my daughter in a Honda Civic without a latch system. I am in search of recommendations for a safe but less expensive seat. She will only be driving a few miles a few times a week so I don't want to spend too much on the extra seat. I already had to purchase a second one for our babysitter,this would be the third. Any recommendations would be great.

Thanks.

Civics are generally pretty easy to install most seats in.... Older years can be difficult, though, if the seats are too contoured or if the buckles are forward of the bight (the line where the bottom cushion meets the back).

Do you know the year of the vehicle?

Ideally, I would urge you to try to make an appointment for Grandma with a local CPST (maybe both of you together if that'll be more fun)
