Car seat recommendations after a minor crash

My DH was in a minor crash tonight. According to the NHTSA, I don't need to replace them, but I am going to anyways. None of them are Britax's so, they should be replaced, correct?

I am hoping the insurance is going to cover this. I currently have a Rf'ing Uptown, a FF Radian and a Nautilus, all in a 3 across fit. I was thinking of getting 2 of the new Radians, (not sure how the height of the radian will be RF'ing compared to the Uptown?) and going to a Frontier.

I have no complaints about the Nautilus, but wondering if we would LOVE a Frontier. I am using that seat for a 6 year old. What would you do if you were me? I am so hoping that insurance is going to cover this, if they don't this is going to be a really big expense I wasn't expecting...

All your seats require replacement after any crash, so insurance should replace them. Insurance probably won't (and shouldn't, IMO) upgrade the Uptown to a Radian and a Nauti to a Frontier.

I have Britax's in our main car, and we are big fans. I was wondering if I would like the Frontier better than the Nauti. I would be happy if the insurance would just pay for what I already had in there, I would be paying for the upgrades.
