When should I install my infant car seat?
Anytime between 35-37 weeks is a good time to install your infant (or convertible) seat in preparation for the big day. If you go into labor before 35 weeks, your baby will probably spend some time in the NICU, so you’ll have plenty of time to figure it out in the meantime.

Can you put a baby seat in a Ute Wa?
Yes. If there are two child restraints or booster seats in the rear and there is not enough space to put a third restraint or booster in the rear seat, then a passenger aged four to less than seven years can be in a booster seat in the front seat. You will need to use a booster seat that does not need to be anchored.
How tall do you have to be to sit in the front in Australia?
145cm tall
Instead, they advise that children should be at least 145cm tall, rather than any particular age, to be allowed the great privilege (at least in a kid’s mind) of sitting up front. And it’s important to remember that being seven years old and 145cm tall very rarely correlate.
Do baby seats need to be professionally fitted?
