Question

Following the recent birth of my daughter I wondered if anyone knew of any decent child car seats that use the isofix anchors in the back of my 5-door MY02 WRX. I have one that uses the seatbelt but figured it would be easier to get one that uses the anchors. I've had a look at the Recaro website but they don't say if they adopt this system. Does anyone out there know of any that do ?

I am using the isofix anchors in my MY01 saloon.
Subaru don't actually sell any seats that use the isofix system

I got an isofix seat from a VW dealer, think it's called a 'Bobsy'.
I just removed the nasty VW badge and replaced with an STi badge I got from Graham Goode Racing and everyone thinks it's an STi baby seat

Great seat and much better than using the rear seat belts.

Hope this helps

Excellent, thanks very helpful. I've done a bit more research and other than the VW seat, Britax do one too :

Britax Isofix Car Seat

Though I must admit, having an 'STi' seat sounds cool. Which badge did you use from GG ? Was it the 70mm round one ? And how did you fasten it on ?

Incidentally, if anyone else is interested in isofix seats I found this web page with pics :

Which cars have ISOFIX seats then? Also, it looks from those pictures like the seat is only held to the car at its base -- is there no securing at the top of the seat?
